Meghan Markle launched her new @meghan account on Wednesday morning, sharing footage of herself running barefoot on a Californian beach.
However, the Duchess of Sussex's blunder in her first video post since returning to Instagram has been spotted by royal fans.
In a debut video reportedly captured by Prince Harry, Meghan appears at ease.
The footage shows the Duchess playfully enjoying moments in the sand before drawing '2025' into the sand on the beach.
The video concludes with a beaming Meghan giggling as she runs off camera.
The post, which sparked immediate interest online, was filmed by Prince Harry and uploaded at approximately 8am Montecito time on News Years Day.
Eagle-eyed fans have spotted a revealing blunder in the seemingly perfect beach clip.
In the early moments of the video, as Meghan searches for the ideal spot to write her message, an earlier attempt at writing '2025' can be seen in the left-hand corner of the frame.
Multiple footprints surrounding the previous attempt suggest several takes were needed to achieve the final, polished version.
The @meghan account features a new profile picture - a black-and-white photograph showing the Duchess smiling.
Meghan's new account has already achieved verified status on Instagram, receiving the platform's blue tick on Thursday.
