Meghan Markle and Prince Harry go trick-or-treating with Archie and Lilibet

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were spotted trick-or-treating with Archie and Lilibet in Santa Barbara on Halloween

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were seen celebrating Halloween with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, as the family enjoyed a rare public outing in Santa Barbara.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped out of their Montecito mansion to join local families for trick-or-treating on a quiet suburban street. Meghan fully embraced the festive spirit, donning colorful butterfly wings over a black tracksuit, while Harry opted for a more casual look in jeans, a navy polo shirt, and a light blue baseball cap.

Their children also got into the Halloween fun — Archie, six, was spotted running ahead in an ant costume, while four-year-old Lilibet dressed as a bright green firefly. Meghan was seen holding a Thermos cup, while Harry carried a water bottle as they accompanied their kids door-to-door collecting sweets.

The family’s Halloween outing marks one of the few times the Sussex children have been seen in public since the couple stepped back from royal duties and moved to California in 2020. Meghan has occasionally shared glimpses of Archie and Lilibet on social media, often keeping their faces turned away from the camera.

Halloween holds sentimental value for the couple. Meghan previously revealed in their Netflix series Harry & Meghan that they attended a Halloween party together in 2016 — the night before their relationship went public.

The sighting also comes shortly after King Charles officially stripped Prince Andrew of his royal title, sparking renewed debate among royal watchers about whether similar action could be taken against Harry and Meghan.
