Meghan Markle has opened up on her fear of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet using social media.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have two young children together Archie, 4, and Lilibet, 2.
Meghan opened up on parenthood during a discussion on a panel as part of the World Mental Health Day celebrations in New York on Tuesday.
The Duchess of Sussex highlighted the danger of social media use, particularly for children, during her appearance in Manhattan.

Meghan said: "As parents, though our kids are young, they’re two and a half and four and a half… but social media is not going away.
"I think by design, there was an entry point that was supposed to be positive in creating community and something has devolved, and there’s no way to hear that and not try to help these families have their stories be heard."
The duchess continued: "Being a mom is the most important thing in my entire life — outside, of course, being a wife to this one,” she said, motioning to Harry.
"But I will say, I feel fortunate that our children are at an age, again, quite young, so this isn’t in our immediate future, but I also feel frightened by how it’s continuing to change.

"And this will be in front of us. As they say, ‘Being a parent, the days are long but the years are short.’ So it worries me.
"But I’m also given a lot of hope and a lot of energy by the progress we’ve made in the last year."
Last month, Meghan Markle's father Thomas Markle has made a fresh plea to his daughter over Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
The Duchess of Sussex's dad sent a public message to his daughter in a new interview today.

Thomas Markle also fired a dig at Meghan saying the royal is "not the person I knew as a daughter".
He said: "I'm heartbroken. I am very upset. This is a cruel thing to do to a grandparent - to deny the right to see a grandchild.
Thomas Markle added that seeing Prince Archie and Princess Archie would give him "peace".
