Meghan Markle marked Princess Lilibet's fourth birthday on June 4 by sharing previously unseen photographs on Instagram, revealing a touching family connection. The images showed infant Lilibet wrapped in the same merino wool blanket from British knitwear brand G.

They added that the possible reason was that, 'The king hadn’t wanted Archie and Lili to carry the titles, most of all the HRH, and the British passports, once created, would be the first and perhaps the only legal proof of their names.'
