Here is what actually happened:

The Prince and Princess of Wales posted pictures of the queen with many of her great-grandchildren on Instagram on Friday; however, Prince Archie, 3, and Princess Lilibet, 1, were noticeably absent.

Together with the previously unseen flashback photo, the pair added, "Today would have been Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth's 97th birthday."

The caption added, "This picture showing her with some of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren was taken at Balmoral last summer," referring to the vacation spot Archie and Lilibet had not yet visited.

Audience reaction to the Homage picture that was posted:

Harry's children might have also been included in this, as one of the Wales' Instagram fans noted. He must feel sorry for his kids' enduring recollections.

Others on social media asked where Archie and Lilibet were, while others noted that Princess Eugenie's 2-year-old son August and Princess Beatrice's 1-year-old daughter Sienna were also missing.

When was the last time Queen Elizabeth met Prince Harry’s children?

Three months after seeing Harry and Meghan's children at her Platinum Jubilee festivities, the Queen passed away in September 2022. Elizabeth's courtiers rejected Harry's request to bring a camera to the meet-up.

The late Queen invited the Sussexes twice last summer. Both invitations were rejected by Harry and Meghan.

If the Sussex children were in America, there’s a good reason why they are not in the picture.

Kate didn\'t leave them out, any more than Sienna and August were left out. This was the last picture of the Queen with her great grandchildren. Those missing had parents who weren\'t there.
