The ski lesson footage comes just a day after Meghan was spotted shopping for toys for Archie and his sister Princess Lilibet on Wednesday, April 1, at a local shop in Montecito, Calif.

Meghan bought Magic Rabbit playing cards and Magic Castle Sea Monkeys at the shop in the Santa Barbara-area town where she lives with her family.

“She was picking up Easter gifts for her kids and her godchildren,” a source told PEOPLE. “She was there for a while, talking to the staff and making selections.”

Exclusively speaking to PEOPLE in 2025, Meghan opened up about how the Montecito community has become protective of her family.

“Once you know us, I think you want us to have the same normalcy as parents and for our children as they do, despite however unique our situation is,” she said.

At the Alliance for Children’s Rights 34th Annual Champions for Children event in Beverly Hills on March 19, Meghan’s close friend Kelly McKee Zajfen opened up about seeing Meghan in action as a mother of two.

“Meghan is one of my best friends, and I’m honored that she said yes [to presenting] and that she’s been along this journey with me as well,” Zajfen told Hello! magazine. “She supports the Alliance, and she’s been doing this for a few years now.”

“She not only shows up for my family, but it’s a real privilege to be able to watch her mother too, and so it means a lot for her to be a part of this,” Zafjen added, per the outlet.
