The Duchess of Sussex has left a gushing message on Instagram, paying tribute to her husband Prince Harry on his 35th birthday.
In the Instagram post - a collage of photographs of him throughout his life - Meghan said Harry is "the best husband and most amazing dad to our son".
Images of the prince include ones from when he was a baby and being carried by his mother Princess Diana, through to his adulthood, as well as a new image of him with his wife and son Archie.
It also put the spotlight on his work, including a picture of him in the armed forces, wearing a camouflage jacket and green beret, and another in a military dress coat, saluting next to his grandfather Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh.
It read: "A birthday message from the Duchess of Sussex:
"'Your service to the causes you care so deeply for inspires me every day. You are the best husband and most amazing dad to our son. We love you. Happiest birthday!'"
The post was flooded with responses wishing the duke a happy birthday and within two hours it already had nearly 300,000 likes.
And while the focus was supposed to be on Harry, royal fans couldn't help but notice an unseen picture of the couple's son Archie, who was born in May.
One person commented: "New picture of Archie [sic] Thank you for posting he's so adorable!".
While another said: "This is the best photo montage, the one with Archie is a gem".
The royal couple have kept Archie out of the public eye since his birth and are said to be keen on giving him a normal upbringing.
During a recent royal engagement, proud dad Harry told one of the children at Lealands High School that his son "is really well, thanks, and he's getting so big".
This week was also busy for Meghan as she ended her maternity leave by attending the launch of her Smart Set capsule collection in collaboration with Smart Works charity.
The range is aimed at helping the charity, which trains and dresses unemployed women for interviews, at the John Lewis flagship London department store.

Meghan said the community project reflected the work she and Harry would be carrying out in the future, when their Sussex Royal foundation is officially launched in 2020.
At the end of the engagement, the duchess said: "I've got to get back to the baby - it's feeding time".
