Meghan Markle has shared a first look at her family's return to the U.K.
In a Sunday, Sept. 13, Instagram post , the Duchess of Sussex, 45, shared a video highlighting life in England after she and husband Prince Harry recently returned with their children, son Prince Archie , 7, and daughter Princess Lilibet , 5, and their dogs , Pula and Mia.
At the start of the 35-second clip, Meghan and Harry, 41, can be seen walking hand in hand outdoors, before the video transitions to scenes of what appear to be Lilibet's feet before a fireplace and Meghan splashing around in a muddy puddle.
The video then shows Lilibet riding a bicycle, as Archie — with a British accent — cheers her on, exclaiming, "Go! Go!" before running beside her. Wham 's "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" then starts to play, as more outdoorsy recordings, including Harry, Archie and Lilibet fishing on a boat, are featured.
Throughout the entire video, two emojis are placed at the top: one of a British flag and another of a red heart.
Meghan and Harry arrived in the U.K. on Aug. 26, just a week after PEOPLE revealed that they were relocating to Harry's home country with their family for an extended period.
A source told PEOPLE that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex spent their last weekend before their move to the U.K. with close friends, including those of their children and Meghan's mom, Doria Ragland .
Following the move, a source close to Harry and Meghan told PEOPLE that settling the children "has been, and remains, their focus."
"Everything else will fall into place when the time is right," the insider continued. "There is a lot to do. They have just moved halfway across the world, and it's been really busy getting the kids settled. Their focus has been on that, and will remain on that, for the time being. They are happy to be back."
Harry and Meghan's family plan to make a private, non-royal residence in the U.K. their home base for an extended period, with Archie and Lilibet attending school in Britain. They will also maintain their home in California and vacation property in Portugal.
The couple is also not returning to royal roles . (In recent years, the Duchess of Sussex has spoken openly about feeling isolated and unhappy during her time as a working royal , and Meghan and Harry have criticized both the British press and what they described as the royal institution's failure to protect her .)

A source recently told PEOPLE that Meghan and Harry's decision to relocate from California, where they settled in 2020 after stepping back from their roles as senior members of the royal family, was not without emotion. "They've been planning this for some time, and they feel it's the right thing for their family, but that doesn't mean leaving was easy," they explained.
A Montecito insider said that what Britain can offer Archie and Lilibet was a big appeal for the Suits alum.
"Meghan feels very fortunate that they're able to give Archie and Lilibet the opportunity to experience both worlds," they said, while a source said Harry "wants them to understand the world he grew up in and where their family comes from."
