  • Royal family members shared warm birthday wishes for the Duke of Sussex as he celebrates his 36th birthday today.

  • Prince William and Duchess Kate, Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla, and, of course, Queen Elizabeth II all shared throwback photos to honor his special day.


Members of the royal family are taking to social media today to wish the Duke of Sussex a very happy 36th birthday.

Though Prince Harry along with his wife, Duchess Meghan, and their young son, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, are settling into life in their new hometown of Santa Barbara, California, the royal family still gave a slew of birthday shout-outs from across the pond.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge shared a silly throwback photo of themselves and Harry playfully running a race back in February 2017 from a Heads Together team training session ahead of the London Marathon.

"Wishing a very happy birthday to Prince Harry today! 🎂🎈," read their message.

Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla also joined in on the virtual celebration, sharing a handsome headshot of Harry along with a photo of father and son sharing a laugh at an event.

Queen Elizabeth II shared a nostalgic birthday post on the Royal Family official Instagram account, posting an image of Harry beaming at his grandmother during the Queen’s Young Leaders reception at Buckingham Palace in 2017.

Royal fans can only assume how Harry and Meghan are ringing in the duke's birthday, since the couple no longer utilizes social media after stepping away from royal life back in March. Per People, however, the couple have been quietly adjusting to their new West coast life and are enjoying experiencing their newfound community.

"They have settled into the quiet privacy of their community since their arrival and hope that this will be respected for their neighbors, as well as for them as a family," said the couple's spokesperson last month.
