With the holiday season just around the corner, it’s believed that the Royal Family has already sent out invites for their annual Christmas festivities at Sandringham . Each year, King Charles and Queen Camilla host an intimate gathering on December 25th, providing a much-needed opportunity for the family to spend quality time together.

The day is filled with gift exchanges, a traditional Christmas Day church service, and a hearty lunch, making it a highly anticipated event for the family. However, not all Royal relatives make the guest list. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who stepped back from Royal duties in 2020, are unlikely to receive an invitation this year.

Despite being the youngest son of the King, Prince Harry hasn’t celebrated Christmas with his Royal kin since 2018 – the year before his son, Prince Archie, was born. The news emerges as Prince Harry’s close call as ‘fixated individual’ intrudes on UK visit.

Even though King Charles and Prince Harry have recently met and supposedly “reconciled”, it’s doubtful that Harry and Meghan will be invited to Sandringham due to some ongoing tensions with other senior royals.

This includes their strained relationship with Prince William, as Harry is reportedly not on speaking terms with his older brother.

These tensions are believed to stem from actions taken by Harry and Meghan since their departure from Royal life, including their revealing 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, their 2022 Netflix docuseries, and Harry’s upcoming 2023 memoir, Spare. Harry, still recognized as the Duke of Sussex, is rumored to be viewed with suspicion by the royals due to his past revelations of personal moments and conversations.

Just a few weeks ago, after a meeting with his father, Harry told the press that his father would be his “focus” moving forward. While he didn’t disclose the details of their conversation, it’s speculated that the royals remain cautious of the duke’s actions.

Despite not having spent Christmas at Sandringham for seven years, Prince Harry and Meghan are said to have enjoyed the Royal holiday festivities in the past, with Meghan describing it as the large family she never had.

Their children, six year old Prince Archie and four year old Princess Lilibet, have yet to experience a Christmas at Sandringham.
