Meghan Markle has posted a loved-up snap alongside husband Prince Harry as she gushed over their kids on Fourth of July.

The 43-year-old was quite busy on social media on Independence Day, sharing posts on both her personal and As Ever Instagram accounts.

Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, kicked off her day by showing off her sold-out raspberry spread in a promotional video that some viewers have criticized as ’embarrassing’.

But she has now shared a more personal touch in her latest family-orientated upload.

The series of photos featured a tray of homemade cupcakes, a detailed shot of one of the delicious sweets, and a third picture of Meghan cuddling up to Harry.

The mom-of-two, in reference to their kids Archie Harrison and Lilibet Diana, wrote in the caption: ‘Our second date was the 4th of July 2016 and H brought me cupcakes to celebrate. 

‘Now, all these years later, our two children are in on the tradition.’

She added: ‘Happy Independence Day! May your day be as sweet as these cupcakes.’

Earlier in the day, also in honor of the July 4 holiday, Meghan posted a clip to her As Ever Instagram page showcasing a charcuterie board she had put together – but it has not gone down well with viewers. 

In the video, Meghan introduced her board as ‘easy entertaining,’ and decorated a wooden platter with various fruits, cheeses, and crackers, as well as her sold-out, $14 As Ever raspberry spread.

She looked summer-chic in an oversized, blue-and-white striped button down as she filmed from what appeared to be her own kitchen in Montecito, California.  

While she assembled the board, the Duchess, 43, carefully started off by arranging fruits like raspberries and cherries, then added some star-shaped cheese and blueberries, along with some crackers and slices of sourdough bread.

To finish things off, she took a brand-new container of her raspberry spread, which went on sale as part of the first As Ever drop in April, and scooped it into a small dish. 

However, the spread sold out within a half hour of it going on sale, leaving many fans dying to get their hands on it.   

As she put the spread onto the board, she accidentally dropped a raspberry into it, laughing as she popped it into her mouth.

‘Happy 4th of July!’ the caption of the video read.

The mom-of-two, in reference to their kids Archie Harrison and Lilibet Diana, wrote in the caption: 'Our second date was the 4th of July 2016 and H brought me cupcakes to celebrate. Now, all these years later, our two children are in on the tradition'

Meghan also posted a similar clip to her personal Instagram page just minutes later, @meghan, where she showed followers an aerial view of her assembling the festive platter.

On Reddit, some royal fans slammed the video as ‘basic,’ as one person even compared her creation to an outdated post on Pinterest.

‘I love a board, especially a themed one, but bless her heart for thinking this is new and/or unique. Also, the faux calligraphy and the unnecessary flowers are eyeroll inducing,’ one person wrote.

Another agreed, ‘Cough! Let’s go copy something from Pinterest, and hey make sure you get the jewelry into the shot… oh! yeah, got to show off the stupid handwriting.’

‘I think it looks good if my regular friend/neighbor did it. They’re not trying to sell an elevated lifestyle brand…. it’s embarrassing,’ someone else typed.
