Meghan Markle has shared a new romantic video with husband Prince Harry and a throwback photo of the two in 2016 as they celebrate their decade-long romance.
On Saturday, the 44-year-old Duchess of Sussex took part in the viral “2026 is the new 2016” trend, where social media users ring in the new year with unflattering photos from the past decade.
Markle posted a black-and-white video from this year in which she was seen dancing with Harry, 41, on the lawn – as well as a photo of the couple that appeared to have been taken on their trip to Botswana, Africa in 2016, just weeks after they first met.

In the clip, Markle wore loose shorts and a short-sleeved white shirt while Harry wore pants and a t-shirt.
The former “Suits” actress was seen dancing on the grass towards Harry before the pair hugged and kissed. The couple then began to dance with each other with Harry dipping his wife’s back at one point.
The video, set to Olivia Dean’s 2025 song, “So Easy (To Fall in Love),” ended with Harry picking up Markle and wrapping his legs around her waist.

In a November 2017 interview with the BBC, Harry and Markle recalled that they first met after a mutual friend set them up on a blind date in London in early July 2016.
The two had an instant connection and quickly followed their first meeting two days back to back. Harry recalled that a few weeks later, he asked Markle to accompany him on a camping trip to Botswana.

PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MARKLE MADE THEIR FIRST PUBLIC OUTING SINCE REUNIONING MRS CHARLES.
“I think about three weeks, maybe four weeks later I was able to persuade him to come and join me in Botswana,” he said to People magazine. “And we – we sat together under the stars, we spent – he came and joined me for five days outside, which was very nice.”
“Just taking it – take the time to be able to go on a long trip across the country and just talk,” Markle added.
Harry noted that it didn’t take long for him to realize that Markle was the one.

“I fell in love with Meghan very quickly – it was confirmation for me that all the stars were aligned,” he said. “This beautiful woman stumbled and fell into my life.”
In November 2016, Harry made an official statement confirming their relationship and begged to be freed from the negative press their love was receiving.

While speaking to the BBC, Markle noted that the couple was able to enjoy their relationship for several months before it was created. At the time, she was filming her USA Network TV show “Suits” in Toronto, Canada while Harry was living in London.
“We had a good five months, six months with almost no privacy, which was amazing,” she said. “I think we’ve been able to have a lot of bonding time and we’ve never gone more than two weeks without seeing each other, even though we’ve obviously been in a long-distance relationship. That’s right – we’ve made it work.”
Markle also shared a never-before-seen throwback photo of the couple in 2016. (Meghan Markle Instagram)
