Meghan Markle is giving a rare behind-the-scenes look at Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet visiting her Netflix set.
On Sept. 1, the Duchess of Sussex, 44, shared the first photos of her children on the set of her Netflix series With Love, Meghan, which premiered its second season on August 26.
“Filming season two of ‘With Love, Meghan’ was more fun than you can imagine. Part of how we kept the vibe alive? Music,” Meghan wrote below a montage of photos, which included a playlist of songs she played on set.
“Between set ups I would play a song from my phone, and today I wanted to share some of the favorites I kept on rotation! Add them to your playlist, press shuffle, and enjoy! Happy Labor Day weekend! Work hard, play hard 🎶,” she continued.
The carousel opened with a shot of Meghan alongside one of her season two guests, chef José Andrés, before rolling through photos of Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4, visiting the set.
Meghan previously told PEOPLE that she chose to film With Love at a rental near her family’s home in Montecito instead of their actual house to “protect that safe haven.”
The first photo of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet was taken from behind, highlighting the siblings’ red hair inherited from their father, Prince Harry, as they shared headphones while watching a video of Meghan on a small screen.
Another image captured Princess Lilibet spinning in a director’s chair with the family beagle at her feet, while Meghan’s close friend and makeup artist Daniel Martin — who appears in both seasons of With Love, Meghan — opened the door.
In a nod to his own set visit, Harry appeared alongside Meghan and their private wedding reception caterer, Clare Smyth, in another photo tied to Smyth’s season two episode of With Love, Meghan.
The final family shot captured Prince Archie in action — literally calling “cut” with a director’s clapperboard in hand.
Meghan previously opened up about that moment, telling PEOPLE, “Archie did the [filming clapboard]! Sweet moments.”
“They would also come with my husband and visit me on-set, and I loved that my children were able to watch me working and see the balance of that and understand what Mama does and is working to create and share,” she said. “It was really special because up until then, they hadn’t seen me at work.”

Reflecting on the meaning of her children’s set visits, she told PEOPLE: “I hope that when they get old enough, they feel really proud that they were part of the beginning of this with me.”
