Royal expert Angela Levin believes fears over the documentary’s fallout may explain why Harry and Meghan are skipping Christmas with the royals. “It could be a case where the royals don’t want them there after the documentary,” she told The Sun, adding that their absence may be “a huge relief for the rest of the family.”
Meghan’s Memorable Christmas Gift
Despite today’s distance, there were once lighter moments. During her first Christmas at Sandringham, Meghan reportedly gave Queen Elizabeth a singing hamster toy, which delighted both the monarch and her corgis.
For Prince William, she chose a novelty gift that stood out. As Finding Freedom recounts: “At least one of her gifts was a huge hit—a spoon for William that had ‘cereal killer’ embossed on the shallow bowl end of the utensil.”
Those moments now feel far removed, as the Sussexes’ relationship with the Royal Family remains uncertain — especially during what is meant to be the most peaceful time of year.
