Sussexes' Christmas Choice Could Please King Charles
20 Oct
Summary
- Harry and Meghan may earn King Charles' favor with their Christmas decision.
- Royal expert commends Sussexes for planning to spend holidays in the US.
- Couple's move could avert an awkward situation for the King.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may be earning points with King Charles due to their reported Christmas plans. Royal expert Katie Nicholl lauded the Sussexes for their sensible decision to spend the festive season in the United States with Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland.
Nicholl suggested that an invitation for the couple to join the royal family at Sandringham was unlikely. She also noted that any such invitation could have led to an awkward situation given ongoing family tensions. By making their own arrangements, the Sussexes are proactively avoiding this potential discomfort.
A friend of the couple indicated that Harry and Meghan would follow Doria Ragland's wishes for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. This decision aligns with their past holiday choices, which have included private trips to Canada and celebrations at their home in Montecito, California.
However, advice has also been given to the Sussexes against rushing a reconciliation. Former royal butler Grant Harrold cautioned that attending a royal Christmas gathering this year might be premature, suggesting that any reconciliation should unfold gradually.
