The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have thrilled their supporters by creating their own Instagram account.
It’s a big move for Prince Harry and Meghan, who previously shared the same social media account as Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Harry and Meghan are preparing for the arrival of their first child imminently and are moving out of Kensington Palace to set up home in Frogmore Cottage in the grounds of Windsor Castle. And it appears that changes are beginning to be made as they leave their life in London.
They have now released nine photos documenting their work together on their new social media account, called Sussexroyal.
Harry, 34, and 37-year-old Meghan’s new account was announced on Kensington Palace’s Twitter today.
Welcome to Instagram, SussexRoyal!
