Meghan Markle has been cropped out of a photo shared by the royal family to celebrate Prince Harry’s 40th birthday.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were photographed on DogPatch during their royal family visit to Dublin, Ireland in 2018.
On Sunday, the Official X of the royal family The account shared the photo, but Markle, 43, appears to have been cropped to show only Harry, 40.
“Happy 40th birthday today to the Duke of Sussex!” The message was read.
In the picture, Harry is smiling while sitting at a table wearing a gray suit jacket and white button-up shirt.
In the original photo, Markle was wearing a black blazer and white shirt.
A source told The Post that “as a guideline, the photo was provided in this format by the Press Association.”
Harry’s estranged family has not made any public statements about his birthday since Queen Elizabeth’s death in September 2022.
They don’t recognize Markle’s birthday on August 4.
Harry was expected to receive phone calls from some of his family members on his birthday.
“Harry will hear from his family,” a palace source told The Post exclusively. “Charles and Kate will be calling Harry to wish him a happy birthday.”
However, the source said Harry will not be hearing from his estranged older brother Prince William.
An insider who knows both brothers personally said the Prince of Wales, 42, would not approach Harry “given everything that has happened”.
On Harry’s milestone birthday this year, he reportedly received an $8.5 million cash bonus thanks to arrangements made by his late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother.
Harry and his wife have been estranged from their relatives since leaving the royal family and moving to California in 2020.
The couple then launched a full-scale attack on the palace in a bombshell television interview with Oprah Winfrey, their six-part Netflix documentary and Harry’s memoir, “Spare.”
But Grand Harold – who served as King Charles’ personal butler for seven years – recently told The Post that he thinks a royal involving Harry is possible in the next year or so.
“I’m sure things will improve with time because time is a healer,” Harald told The Post. “How long will it take? Who knows.
“I have no doubt that one day we’ll see Harry, William, Kate and Meghan all laughing together – the so-called Fab Four. Anything is possible,” he added.
