Meghan Markle snatched the spotlight again, with a comedy video celebrating her age of 40, like most of her public appearances.

Markle's video is her first since she gave birth to her daughter Lilibet last June.

Meghan Markle, the wife of Prince Harry, the grandson of Queen Elizabeth of Britain, posted a video with comedian Melissa McCarthy on a video call from inside her home.

After a comedy from McCarthy, during the conversation, Markle announced a new "initiative" she wants to launch for her birthday.

Under the theme "40 40," the initiative is a global project to encourage people around the world to commit themselves to giving 40 minutes of their time to support the return of women to work.

Markle turned off a Christmas candle on a candy mold covered in fruit at the end of the video.

Megan asked 40 activists, athletes, artists and world leaders to participate by contributing 40 minutes to the initiative to help women return to the labour market.

Markle showed up with a simple home view, with Meghan opting for a comfortable look, combining simple oxen with elegant clothes.

Prince Harry showed up outside the house's window, making some fancy moves with balls, to interrupt the video in a funny way.
