The one gift that Meghan always wants for her birthday is for others to take some time for self-care, self-love, and self-reflection. This tradition comes from Megan's mom, Doria Ragland, who inspired her to take the time to reflect on her life and her future on every birthday.

According to the Mirror, in 2016, Meghan wrote an inspirational piece on her now-deleted The Tig lifestyle website stating,

"My mom has always said that birthdays are your own personal New Year. Your own chance to make resolutions just for yourself and what you prognosticate for your year ahead."

With regards to what Meghan would like for her birthday, the only important presents for her would be:

"More surprises, more adventure, more opportunities to grow, more days filled with giggles and cheeky jokes, more delicious meals, and more inspiration. Always more inspiration," reports the Mirror.

According to 9Honey, it is likely Meghan will also spend some time with close friends in Montecito, just outside LA. In a time where people have been separated from their loved ones, we are sure it would be a welcome break for the couple to celebrate the occasion with their close friends.

The last year has undeniably been a rollercoaster for Meghan and her family, especially after stepping down from their roles as senior Royals. Meghan, Harry, and their son Archie have since relocated to LA, where they are reportedly working on plans for their new charitable foundation, Archewell. 

In an interview with ET, royal expert Katie Nicholl said it's been a "really intensive time" for Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry, with their court case against a British tabloid newspaper and going through the whole lockdown situation because of the coronavirus pandemic. This is likely to mean Meghan will want to celebrate her day by relaxing and having some downtime but also taking the opportunity to spend time with her loved ones.
