Today marks Meghan, Duchess of Sussex [1]'s 39th birthday, and we are overjoyed to celebrate another year of her warm, intelligent, and stylish presence. Meghan is an inspiration to so many women and girls globally; and senior members of the royal family — including the Queen — have all wished her a very happy birthday.

Meghan's birthday wishes came from the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's Instagram [2] page, as well as the Queen [3] herself, and Clarence House [4]. All three royal family accounts shared a beautiful photo of the Duchess, accompanied by a sweet message in the caption. "🎂🎈Wishing The Duchess of Sussex a very happy birthday!" said the Queen, while Kensington Royal said, "Wishing a very happy birthday to The Duchess of Sussex today! 🎂🎈", and Clarence House added "Happy Birthday to The Duchess of Sussex! 🎈" along with an elegant portrait of the Duchess.

Ahead, some of our favourite photos of Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.
