Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been in the news of late. They recently welcomed their first child Archie Harrison and now, they are garnering headlines as they took to their joint Instagram account to share a strong message supporting the LGBTQ community, ahead of the Pride Month. The post showcased a collage of photos which also featured Princess Diana. The picture was from her meeting with HIV patient Gerard McGrath at London Lighthouse in 1996. She was one of the high-profile figures who fought for the removal of the stigma surrounding HIV and AIDS.

They captioned the same as, “Continuing with our tradition to rotate the accounts we follow based on causes and social issues that matter to us: For the month of June we “proudly” shine a light on PRIDE,” read the caption.“This month we pay tribute to the accounts supporting the LGBTQ+ community — those young and old, their families and friends, accounts that reflect on the past and are hopeful for a deservedly more inclusive future. We stand with you and support you. Because it’s very simple: love is love.”

For the unversed, in early May, Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry declared that they will be using their joint Instagram account to follow accounts of causes. They have been following LGBTQ, It Gets Better, Human Rights Campaign, the Elton John AIDS Foundation, Pride and artist Ruben Guadalupe Marquez among others. The royal family recently donated for the mental health-related helpline.
