(Web Desk) - Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s little princess is turning 3.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex mark the third birthday of their daughter, Princess Lilibet, on Tuesday, but they got the festivities started early with pre-birthday bash.

The family celebrated over the weekend with a party at home in Montecito, California, PEOPLE confirms.

Among the guests were close friends and family as well as some of Lili's friends.

Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor was born in California after Prince Harry and Meghan stepped back from their royal roles and moved to Meghan’s home state in the U.S. with their son, Prince Archie, now 5, in 2020.

Lilibet’s birth announcement, shared on the Archewell Foundation website, said that she was named after Queen Elizabeth’s family nickname while her middle name, Diana, "was chosen to honor her beloved late grandmother, the Princess of Wales."

The birth announcement also referred to the newborn as Lili, a nickname that Prince Harry and Meghan have continued to call their daughter.
