A never-before-seen video of a pregnant Meghan Markle dancing with Prince Harry has resurfaced online, shared in celebration of their daughter Princess Lilibet’s fourth birthday on June 4.
The light-hearted footage, captured in a labor room at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in California, shows Meghan playfully dancing with her husband to Starrkeisha’s viral song “The Baby Momma Dance.”
The video was posted to mark Lilibet’s birthday, with Meghan sharing a few personal memories from that time. In a caption accompanying the clip, Meghan 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!”
In the footage, Meghan, visibly pregnant, moves her hips and waves her arms with Prince Harry joining in — a candid and cheerful moment inside the delivery room.
Despite the light-hearted nature of the post, the video reignited persistent conspiracy theories claiming Meghan faked her pregnancy.
Critics quickly jumped into the comment sections, with some insisting the “belly moving everywhere is not a pregnancy belly at all,” and others claiming “a heavily pregnant woman cannot move that way.” One user remarked, “There is nothing solid in there. The surrogacy theory just got another boost.”
Still, other viewers defended the Duchess of Sussex, pointing out that dancing in the hospital was part of a viral TikTok trend among expectant mothers.
“Imagine being so salty about someone else’s pregnancy,” one comment read. “Y’all must be so bored with your own lives. She’s not the only one dancing round in the hospital.”
Speculation surrounding the births of Meghan and Harry’s children isn’t new. Since the arrival of their son Prince Archie in 2019, conspiracy theories about possible surrogacy have persisted.
Originally, reports claimed Meghan planned to give birth at Frogmore Cottage, but the location later shifted to Portland Hospital in London — a move that only deepened public curiosity.
Additionally, Harry and Meghan waited two days after Archie’s birth before introducing him to the public, in contrast to the tradition followed by Prince William and Kate Middleton, who debuted their children outside the Lindo Wing shortly after birth.
“This scandal comes as no surprise. Speculation about the children has been simmering for years,” a senior palace source told RadarOnline.com, adding, “There are so many questions swirling around them. This crisis won’t die down until the irrefutable truth comes out.”
Royal author Lady Colin Campbell has also weighed in on the issue, saying Meghan “created a situation” that led to the rumors and adding, “There should be no mystery as to who is legitimately in the line of succession.”

Further stoking the controversy, Meghan’s estranged half-sister Samantha Markle claimed in an earlier interview that their father, Thomas Markle, told her Meghan picked up frozen eggs nine months before Archie’s birth. “That makes sense there would be a surrogate involved,” Samantha claimed.
She also suggested the royal couple may be hiding the truth to maintain their children’s places in the line of succession. “But that would mean the child would be removed from the line of succession because an heir has to be born from a titled royal mother,” she said.
Despite these ongoing allegations, there is no public evidence supporting the claims. The video has sparked mixed reactions, with some finding joy in the Sussexes’ relaxed moment and others rehashing long-standing doubts.
