After a two-month break from Instagram, the _Suits_ actress returned to the social media app with a cute photo with an inspiring message. [Prince Harry](http://people.com/tag/prince-harry/ "undefined")‘s girlfriend shared an artsy photo of a message on the ground partially covered by her own shadow the reads “#NoBadEnergy” twice — while also showing off her adorable cat flats. “Sending good vibes – always in all ways,” Markle, 35, captioned the image, adding the hashtags #nobadenergy and #bethechange. [PEOPLE confirmed](http://people.com/royals/prince-harry-dating-meghan-markle-friend-confirms/ "undefined") in October that Harry and Markle had been seeing each other for three months and since the start of the new year the pair have been, according to an insider, “inseparable” while using Harry’s cozy two-bedroom Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace as a home base. “They are really just enjoying spending time together,” a second source tells PEOPLE of the couple, who [vacationed in Norway together in early January](http://people.com/royals/inside-prince-harry-and-meghan-markles-spectacular-northern-lights-getaway-in-the-freezing-cold/ "undefined") and were [last photographed hand-in-hand in London](http://people.com/royals/prince-harry-and-meghan-markle-photos-london-date-night/ "undefined") on Feb. 1. [Markle’s humanitarian work](http://people.com/royals/inside-meghan-markles-empowering-trip-to-india-for-women-and-girls/ "undefined") took her to India for a week in January. But with the actress not expected back on the _Suits_ set until April, palace insiders predict Harry, 32, and his new love, 35, will soon jet off on a ski trip together. “It just feels very natural for them both,” the source says of the relationship. “It feels easy — like they’ve known each other for a long time.” _This_ [_article_](http://people.com/royals/meghan-markle-returns-to-instagram-after-2-month-hiatus-with-no-bad-energy-message/ "undefined") _originally appeared on_ [_People.com_](http://people.com "undefined") ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4668817/meghan-markle-instagram-prince-harry/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4668817/meghan-markle-instagram-prince-harry/"},"headline":"Meghan Markle Returns to Instagram After Hiatus With Telling Message","datePublished":"2017-02-13T13:59:22.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T09:04:46.888Z","description":"The actress and girlfriend of Prince Harry is feeling good","url":"https://time.com/4668817/meghan-markle-instagram-prince-harry/","keywords":["motto"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6ff2ce6ba1a61c9b/6988ba014dd21573adefdbd0/meghan-markle-returns-instagram.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Stephanie Petit / People"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6ff2ce6ba1a61c9b/6988ba014dd21573adefdbd0/meghan-markle-returns-instagram.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Annual Charity Day Hosted By Cantor Fitzgerald And BGC - Cantor Fitzgerald Office","caption":"Annual Charity Day Hosted By Cantor Fitzgerald And BGC - Cantor Fitzgerald Office","creditText":"Mike McGregor—Getty Images for Cantor Fitzgerald","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/motto/","name":"motto"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4668817/meghan-markle-instagram-prince-harry/","name":"Meghan Markle Returns to Instagram After Hiatus With Telling Message"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Prince Harry Introduces Meghan Markle to Princess Kate and Charlotte","description":"On Tuesday, Prince Harry introduced his girlfriend to sister-in-law Princess Kate and niece Princess Charlotte, The Sun reported","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/SvNcOwyG/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2017-01-17T18:41:26.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/SvNcOwyG.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4668817/meghan-markle-instagram-prince-harry/","duration":"PT42S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4668817/meghan-markle-instagram-prince-harry/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
