Meghan Markle has been dubbed “unroyal” by a royal expert tonight after the Duchess of Sussex released a video on Instagram that has left fans speechless. Meghan, 43, posted a clip on Instagram on Wednesday to mark four years since the birth of her and Prince Harry’s daughter Princess Lilibet.

While Meghan originally posted sweet photographs to mark the special day, she took fans by surprise this evening when she shared a video of herself and Prince Harry “twerking” in a hospital room ahead of their daughter’s birth in 2021. The video shows Meghan dancing in a black nightdress, accompanied by Harry, who was wearing jeans and a plain grey hoodie.

The Duchess captioned the video: “Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn’t work – there was only one thing left to do!”

The video has taken royal fans by surprise, with royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams dubbing the video – which was taken a year after Harry and Meghan quit royal life in 2020 – “unroyal”.

He exclusively told Express.co.uk: “When I first saw the video of a heavily pregnant Meghan and Harry twerking, I thought her Instagram account had been hacked and that this was a spoof. It was apparently taken in a labour ward four years ago.

“It is, of course, entirely up to Meghan what she posts. It is, however, our prerogative to judge.

“After seeing this I wondered, how unroyal can you get? She certainly was wrong for a royal role and she didn’t last long in it either. Looking at this video, it is no wonder!”

Speculating about how the royals are likely to react to the video, Fitzwilliams said: “I think the Royal Family will be as amazed as I was!!”

While many of Meghan’s fans have praised the video and expressed love for the “fun” couple, Harry and Meghan have also been criticised by some royal fans for the video. One person wrote on X: “Good grief, they are really bringing down the reputation and respect for the monarchy.”

Another said: “There is NOTHING royal about them or this nonsense.”

The video is believed to have been taken just hours before Princess Lilibet’s birth.
