Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, has suggested she has been through the "hardest seven years" of her life.

The 44-year-old duchess - who was known as Meghan Markle before marrying Prince Harry in May 2018 - took to Instagram to share two Astrology-related posts over the weekend which highlighted the significant shift 25 April would supposedly bring for her star sign Leo.

The first post Meghan - whose birthday is 2 August - shared came from the Instagram account Astrology Is For Everyone and featured two men dancing to Celine Dion's 1991 track That's The Way It Is.

It was captioned: "Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, + Aquarius ending the hardest seven years of their lives on April 25.(sic)"

The former Suits actress then re-shared a post from the spiritdaughter account, which claimed Saturday (25.04.26) would mark a turning point for Leos so they would feel less pressure and stop questioning themselves.

It read: "The tension between who you actually are and what the world around you was willing to see has been exhausting in a way that is hard to explain to people who have not lived it.

"Your confidence took hits it had no business taking. You questioned your creative direction, your spotlight, your worth. April 25th, the pressure lifts. You get the space to just exist without fighting for it."

Earlier this month, Meghan - who has children Prince Archie, six, and four-year-old Princess Lilibet with Harry - claimed she was "the most trolled person in the entire world" on social media.

During a visit to Australia with her husband, she told students at an event in Melbourne that she had been "bullied and attacked" online every day for the past 10 years and suggested that platforms are "not incentivised" to take action against cruel trolls.

She said: "For now, 10 years, every day for 10 years, I have been bullied and attacked. And I was the most trolled person in the entire world.

"Now, I'm still here.

"And when I think of all of you and what you're experiencing, I think so much of that is having to realise that you know that industry, that billion-dollar industry, that is completely anchored and predicated on cruelty to get clicks - that's not going to change.

"So you have to be stronger than that."
