Meghan Markle’s Easter celebration was a little bit more eggs-tra this year.
The Duchess of Sussex took to Instagram to share a sweet video of a mama duck and her ducklings waddling across a path near her $14 million Montecito, Calif., mansion.
Markle appeared to be shocked and delighted by the unexpected visitors as she was seen covering her open mouth with her hand and shaking her arms in excitement.
“Wishing you a Happy Easter full of love…and surprises!” she captioned the post on Sunday.
The “Suits” alum, 43, was barefoot and dressed in a chic white dress as she spotted the flock in the video.
Markle has been giving fans more glimpses of her and husband Prince Harry’s 18,000-square-foot estate while promoting her latest business ventures, including “With Love, Meghan” on Netflix and her As Ever brand.
The couple purchased the lavish property located in the Santa Barbara enclave in 2020 after stepping down from their roles as senior royals.
The couple and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, have plenty of space with nine bedrooms, 16 bathrooms, plus a pool, a tennis court, a rose garden, a children’s cottage, a chicken coop and a guest house.
Last month, Markle opened the doors of her home to a journalist for the first time with one strict rule.
“I was allowed in on the condition that no photographs were taken in, or of, the house,” New York Times food writer Julia Moskin revealed in article published in early April.
Markle also prioritized her family’s privacy by opting to film her Netflix series at an $8 million farmhouse two miles away from her own mansion.
During the New York Times interview, the duchess hit back at criticism that her lifestyle is unattainable.
“Don’t they know my life hasn’t always been like this?” she said, gesturing to the expansive property.
