Prince Harry has warned about the dangers of posting pictures of children online, just days after Meghan Markle’s social media blunder. Over the weekend, Meghan posted a time-lapse video of Harry carving a pumpkin at the family’s home in Montecito.

While the video was just supposed to show Harry, it also showed Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four, in the background, including their faces. This goes against Harry and Meghan’s desire to never show their children’s faces online as a result of safety fears.

Meghan scrambled to quickly tweak the video and has not commented on it since.

However, in a surprise podcast appearance this week, Harry, 41, has hinted that he would not have been happy about the social media mistake.

The prince spoke about the dangers of posting photographs of children online on the Hasan Minhaj Doesn’t Know podcast.

He said: “Parents can do whatever they want. But from what I’ve seen, what I’ve heard, what I’ve experienced, is you should be really really worried, concerned and cautious about putting photographs of your kids online.

“Especially now, with this surge of unregulated AI. You don’t know where it’s going to go, how it’s going to be used.”

The prince continued: “But that’s also really sad. There’s parents watching this asking ‘well how am I supposed to share photos with people across the world’.”

While Meghan does share some photographs of her and Harry’s children online, she keeps their faces hidden.

The Duchess does this by either taking photographs of them, showing the backs of their heads, or covering their faces with emojis.

It is believed this is to give their children privacy growing up and to protect them.
