ROYALS IN TEARS! King Charles Releases Important Message To Catherine At Last Christmas
This Christmas, King Charles is reportedly planning a grand celebration at Sandringham House, in what seems to be an effort to bring joy and togetherness to the royal family after a challenging year marked by health battles, including his and Princess Catherine’s cancer treatments. However, while many royals are expected to gather for the occasion, some notable absentees are anticipated, particularly Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Despite the ongoing tension between them and the rest of the royal family, there have been reports that King Charles has invited the Sussexes to spend Christmas with Princess Diana’s family at her childhood home, Althorp. However, no invitation appears to have been extended to them for the royal Christmas gathering at Sandringham. The couple has been absent from previous royal celebrations, and last year, King Charles notably omitted any mention of them in his Christmas speech, despite the invitation extended to them by Princess Diana’s family.
The Sussexes, for their part, are reportedly planning to spend the holiday season in California, where they live in Montecito. Meghan is said to feel strongly about being with her family in California, particularly after a challenging year, and she’s planning for a joyful celebration for their children, Archie and Lilibet. There have also been discussions about how this may be their final Christmas in California before potentially making other changes. While the couple won’t be at Sandringham, it seems they are determined to make their own holiday season special, despite the distance from the royal family.
Meanwhile, King Charles is expected to host a large Christmas party at Sandringham House, where around 100 guests are anticipated. While the Sussexes are not on the guest list, other royals, including Prince William, Princess Catherine, and their children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—are expected to attend. Queen Camilla will also invite a number of her own family members, including her son Tom Parker Bowles and his children, and daughter Laura Lopes with her own family. Princess Anne, along with her children Peter Phillips and Zara Tindall, and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, with their children, Lady Louise Windsor and James, Viscount Severn, will also be present. Additionally, Princess Beatrice and her family are expected to join, along with Prince Andrew, his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, and their daughters, Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank, and their two children.
The absence of Prince Harry and Meghan has been a point of contention within the royal family, particularly as relations between them and the rest of the family have remained strained. Sources close to Prince William and Princess Catherine have reportedly expressed that they would not want to spend Christmas with Harry and Meghan, further complicating any potential reconciliation.
Moreover, Harry’s security concerns are a significant issue. He has been embroiled in legal battles regarding his entitlement to police protection when visiting the UK. This has created another stumbling block to any chance of him attending royal events in the UK, including Christmas at Sandringham.
In summary, while King Charles is preparing a festive gathering at Sandringham with many royal family members in attendance, it appears that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will not be part of this year’s celebrations, further highlighting the ongoing tensions within the royal family.
