Meghan Markle has once again been accused of copying estranged sister-in-law Kate Middleton, this time because of her post for son Prince Archie‘s 6th birthday!

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, shared a picture of her and Prince Harry‘s firstborn on May 6th. He can be seen posing by a balcony with his back turned towards the camera, against the backdrop of a gorgeous sunset.

Meghan Markle Shares New Picture Of Prince Archie On His 6th Birthday

The mom-of-two captioned her birthday post: "Our son. Our sun. Happy 6th birthday to Archie! Thank you for all of the love, prayers, and warm wishes for our sweet boy. He's six! Where did the time go?"

The former Suits actress went on: "(And for all of you who came to celebrate with us at his party last weekend, thank you for making his birthday so incredibly special.)"

Although the With Love, Meghan star turned off the comment section on her Instagram post, fans (and non-fans) still shared their thoughts on other social media platforms. And the majority of the internet slammed the As Ever founder for seemingly copying the Princess of Wales, who usually posts pictures of her children on their birthdays. They also referenced how she recently posed with her children on the Buckingham Palace balcony to celebrate VE Day.

Social media also took issue with Meghan once again hiding her son's face, which both she and Prince Harry do to protect their children's privacy. (Although we imagine both Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet would show their faces if Meghan had things her way!)

Internet Reactions

"What's the actual point of these photos when you can't even see their kids' faces?" asked one X user, to which a second replied: "Thinking that she is taking them because Princess Kate does. Only difference is that the Princess of Wales takes way better photos and doesn't hide who her children are. Fact is her children are way more high profile than Meghan and Harry's! That's of course if they even exist as they have been known to change hair color."

"She is copying Kate again I see," observed a third, as a fourth said the picture came "right after the other royal children were pictured standing on a balcony." A fifth asked: "Does Meghan have no original ideas?"

Other X users questioned the validity of the picture, as a sixth said: "Looks almost like a generic AI-generated image." "He's wearing pajamas standing on a balcony that is overlooking the sea. I don't think it's their house. I don't even think this photo is real," agreed a seventh, as an eighth concurred: "It looks a little too generic to be real." "They don't exist. She's an absolute balloon," slammed a ninth.
