Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet may be royals, but they are learning the value of a hard-earned dollar, according to their mom, Meghan Markle.
During a recent appearance on the podcast Aspire with Emma Grede, Meghan gave some insight into motherhood and the lessons she wants to instill in her two little ones. In the interview, she revealed that Archie and Lilibet are tasked with selling produce from their garden at a local farmer’s market on weekends.
"We grow a lot of veggies. We sometimes do a little farmer's market stand," she told Grede during the convo, adding, "There's a cost and a price for things, and I think that's key for children to understand, especially children who are very lucky to have a home that has privilege; you need to know that just like manners, and taking care of the things around you, there is a value on things."
The royal went on to talk about the importance of gardening and how it can be a great source of teaching children valuable lessons. "Gardening is really, really so great for children because it teaches them patience and teaches them to value and appreciate their food," she explained.
Meghan has been open about motherhood since giving birth to Archie in 2019, telling Oprah Winfrey in a 2021 interview with The Sun, "I’ve been a waitress, an actress, a princess, a Duchess—I’ve always still just been Meghan, right? I’ve been clear on who I am, independent of all that stuff, and the most important title I’ll ever have is mom. I know that."
And on Mother’s Day this year, she shared a sweet picture of her and her children with the caption, "Happy Mother’s Day! Cheers to juggling it all with joy," adding, "And to these two gems - who still attempt to climb ‘mama mountain,’ smother me with kisses, and make every day the most memorable adventure."
Kudos to Meghan and Prince Harry.
