THE Sussexes were last night blasted for invading their own privacy after releasing a video of them twerking to induce labour.

Meghan, 43, posted the cringey hospital dance footage yesterday to celebrate daughter Lilibet’s fourth birthday.

It showed the former actress, heavily pregnant with their second child, making rowing movements and shimmying her shoulders beside a bed.

Prince Harry also shuffles across in a hoodie to the strains of then-viral pregnancy hit The Baby Momma Dance.

Meghan shared the 80-second clip with her three million followers on Instagram after earlier posting photos of her daughter.

She wrote: “Four years ago today, this also happened.

"Both of our children were a week past their due dates . . . so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn’t work — there was only one thing left to do!”

But royal expert Ingrid Seward last night said Meghan was a hypocrite as the couple regularly whine about a lack of privacy.

She told The Sun: “They can do what they like but why put it online?

"Does Meghan have no boundaries? I think it’s vulgar, unnecessary, attention-seeking.

“They make such a point about privacy and security and then they put stuff out there. Meghan can’t resist putting it out there.

“I think it’s completely hypocritical for everything she stands for. It’s very embarrassing.”

King Charles has only ever met his US-based granddaughter Lilibet once, in June 2022.

It comes a day after Meghan said she would consider going into business and “building something” with her girl in the future.

Harry has launched a number of lawsuits over privacy concerns against the media.

Earlier this year he lost a battle over his security arrangements when in the UK, and later said that he would not feel safe bringing Lilibet and son Archie here.

In April the Sussexes called for stronger protections for children from the dangers of social media.

It also emerged last night the couple looked at changing their family name to Spencer, after Harry’s late mum Diana, amid passport delays for their children.

A source said they thought officials were putting them off as the applications included HRH titles.

Earlier in the day, The Duchess posted a sweet snap on Instagram of the her tot as a newborn alongside a picture of Lilibet in the present day.

Meghan said that each day has been "brighter and better" after Lili came into the world.

She captioned the post: "Happy birthday to our beautiful girl!

"Four years ago today she came into our lives - and each day is brighter and better because of it.

"Thanks to all of those sending love and celebrating her special day!"

The family will likely celebrate privately at their California home, continuing their tradition of sharing glimpses of their children's special moments with the public through social media.

Meghan and Harry's daughter Lilibet is seventh in line to the British throne.

She was born in 2021 during the reign of her great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, whose childhood nickname was Lilibet.

It was coined when then-Princess Elizabeth was just a toddler and couldn't pronounce her own name properly.

Her grandfather King George V would affectionately call her Lilibet as a result and it eventually stuck, coming to be used by close relatives.

Harry and Meghan are raising Lilibet and her brother Archie in an exclusive corner of Montecito, California.

The birthday post comes after Meghan recently shared a rare clip of Lili dressed in a beekeeping suit as the pair walked hand in hand to the hives.

The mum-of-two continues to reveal sneak peeks into her life at their £12million mansion.

In the video, the Duchess walked with her daughter towards the beehives, which also featured in her Netflix show With Love, Meghan.

The pair hold hands as Lili toddles along in rainbow coloured wellie-boots and her beekeeping suit.

She looks up at her mum and smiles before Meghan rubs her back and helps her with the task at hand.

In recent months, the As Ever founder has been sharing more pictures of Archie, five, and Lilibet, but without showing their faces.

And, the mum-of-two was slammed by a royal expert for whining about being a typical working mum despite having a nanny.

The Duchess admitted in April she had an "amazing" nanny who had helped her look after Archie and Lili for the past five years.

Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive Show, News.com.au's Royal Correspondent Bronte Coy said she was "frustrated" by Meghan for "overusing" the examples of her motherly responsibilities.

The expert explained: "I have a son, but when I hear people from positions of great privilege - where they can afford nannies and a lot of help - go on and on and on about the working mum thing, it's not the same.

"Yes, it's time away from your kid - I definitely understand that aspect - but it's not the same as the working mum idea that a lot of the rest of the world has to deal with.

"And so she really leaned into that a lot, and I think, well, is this a struggle that you have a lot?"

Bronte added: "You do have help. And also you are at home a lot."

"I find that a little bit grating."

Meghan Markle's £15k 'push present' from Prince Harry

MEGHAN Markle has a staggering jewellery collection - but have you ever noticed the £15,000 “push present” piece that Prince Harry gave to her?

Following the birth of their son Archie, who is now four, the Duke of Sussex reportedly bought Meghan a sapphire pinky ring.

According to : “Meghan Markle has several [pinky rings] in her collection, including a blue sapphire heart by Jessica McCormack, believed to be a ‘push present’ after Archie was born.”

We saw Meghan wear the exquisite pinky ring as she attended Wimbledon in July 2019.

The heart-shaped item is from Jessica McCormack’s Signature collection and is said to be “set with a 0.94 carat heart cut sapphire handcrafted in blackened 18k white gold and 18k yellow gold”.

However, it’s not the only item rumoured to be Meghan’s “push present” from Harry.

Some fans thought Meghan’s “third wedding ring” is a special gift to celebrate Archie’s birth.

Alongside Meghan's gold banded three-stone engagement ring, which includes two diamonds from Princess Diana's collection, and her plain gold wedding band, the Duchess often wears another gold ring.

Push presents have “become a tradition in the royal family” over the years, according to royal etiquette expert Myka Meier.

Prince William is reported to have given Kate Middleton a £1,000 white gold eternity ring after the birth of their first son, George, which she wears on her wedding finger.
