Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will most likely be celebrating Christmas in the United States this year.
Last year, Woman’s Day claimed that Prince William was furious at Prince Harry and Markle for not spending the holidays with the royal family.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex celebrated the holiday with Markle’s mom, Doria Ragland in Los Angeles. And a source said that Queen Elizabeth is deeply concerned for the royal couple.
According to the insider, the queen is disappointed with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s decision to celebrate Christmas elsewhere. After all, last year also happened to be Archie’s first Christmas.
The source also claimed that Prince Charles wasn’t pleased with the royal couple’s decision to celebrate the holidays away from them. And prior to their flight, Prince Charles and Prince William, allegedly, spoke with Prince Harry in an attempt to encourage him to change his plans.
Unfortunately, Prince Harry and Markle still pushed through with their flight. And they didn’t celebrate Christmas with the royal family.
At that time, the royal couple was still official members of the British clan. As such, there was somehow an expectation that they will spend Christmas with the royal family.
But now, they are no longer considered as working royals. As such, it is less likely for them to celebrate Christmas with the royal family this year.
It is also important to note that Prince Harry and Markle celebrated Christmas together with the royal family for two years straight. And Gossip Cop said that the couple has the right to celebrate their third Christmas as a couple any way they want.
Prince William and Kate Middleton didn’t always celebrate Christmas with the royal family either. There were times when Prince William stayed with Middleton’s family in Berkshire for the holidays. However, the Duke of Cambridge never faced a backlash for doing so.
This year, Prince Harry and Markle will most likely spend the holidays in Los Angeles. It is unlikely for the couple to travel over the holidays due to the recent coronavirus pandemic.
While the United States is starting to return to normal, there are still a lot of travel restrictions in place.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex opted to relocate to the United States after staying in Canada for almost three months. They are currently staying at Tyler Perry’s $18-million mansion in Beverly Hills.
