Meghan Highlights the Power of Small Acts of Care
Alongside the video of her children, Meghan shared a photograph of herself apparently taken in the countryside. She wore a jumper featuring the words “it’s the little things” on its sleeve, a message that also served as the central theme of her post.
Reflecting on the importance of everyday acts of kindness and support, the Duchess wrote: “Small acts of care can make a big difference for parents, for caregivers, for moms.
“This International Day of the Girl, I’m proud of the way we are showing up, including with our Archewell Philanthropies collaboration with @momsofferingmore supporting families alongside @allianceofmoms and @allianceforchildrensrights
“As Moms Offering More says: ‘It’s the little things.’ And all of those ‘little things’ ladder up to big support. Please click the link in stories to find out more.”
Her message highlighted the role that seemingly small gestures can play in providing meaningful support to families, particularly parents and caregivers navigating the demands of raising children.
Limited-Edition Jumper Supports Charitable Causes
Meghan also announced a collaboration between Archewell Philanthropies, the nonprofit arm of her and Prince Harry’s organisation, and Moms Offering More, a charity that supports parents and children across Canada and the United States.
The partnership has introduced a limited-edition jumper priced at $100 (£75). The design features the phrase “it’s the little things”, which Meghan wore in the photograph accompanying her International Day of the Girl message.
The jumper is now available for purchase, with all proceeds set to be donated to the charity and other good causes.
The initiative brings together Meghan’s public advocacy for families with a fundraising effort intended to provide practical support to parents and children. Her post also directed followers towards further information about the collaboration through the link in her Instagram Stories.
Harry Says Archie and Lilibet Are Settling Into School
The video comes amid renewed attention on the Sussex family following their return to the UK on August 26, after six years of living in the United States.
Prince Harry told Canadian broadcaster CTV that the family’s return had been going well. Speaking about Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five, he said: “The kids are happy in school and it gives me a chance to really focus on Invictus in Birmingham.
“The games are in July next year.”
Harry also expressed his enthusiasm about being back in Britain, saying: “It’s been great. It’s been great to be back on British soil. ‘It’s great to be back on terra firma, actually!’”
His comments suggested that the children were adjusting to their new school arrangements while he turned his attention to preparations for the Invictus Games, scheduled to take place in Birmingham in July 2027.
The family’s schooling arrangements have reportedly changed following concerns raised by their security team about the school run.
Their return has also coincided with a public disagreement with Buckingham Palace over their royal status, bringing renewed scrutiny to the couple’s relationship with the monarchy.

Why the Sussexes’ Return Has Drawn Attention
Harry and Meghan stepped back from their roles as working royals in 2020, citing personal and financial reasons. Since then, they have established a life in the United States, away from the day-to-day structure of the British royal family.
Their reported relocation from California to the UK has prompted speculation about the reasons behind the move. Suggestions have included a desire for Archie and Lilibet to build a closer relationship with their grandfather, King Charles III, as well as speculation about Meghan’s possible return to acting and the couple’s public profile.
These explanations remain speculative, and the couple’s reported move has attracted attention against the backdrop of their complicated relationship with the royal institution.
In the period leading up to their return, King Charles was reportedly pleased at the prospect of spending more time with his family. However, he was also said to remain firm that Harry and Meghan would not resume duties as working royals, with no arrangement allowing them to occupy a position halfway between royal service and private life.
For now, Meghan’s latest social media posts have offered a glimpse of Archie and Lilibet outdoors while placing the focus on a charitable partnership supporting families. The video and accompanying message combine a personal moment with the Duchess’s ongoing public work on issues affecting parents, caregivers and children.
