A Rare Glimpse at Meghan Markle’s Family Christmas Traditions

The Duchess of Sussex peels back the curtain a bit to showcase her family’s Christmas staples.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s relationship with The Royal Family  is back in the headlines due to a reported mending of ties between the couple and the rest of the monarchy in the U.K. This includes their reported recent contact with the king and the report that Markle wants no contact at all and has moved on.

No matter what you believe, according to E! News, Markle was recently chatting about her family’s Christmas traditions, possibly hinting at a friendlier relationship with the royals as her kids grow older. She also shared a peek at the Christmas list her kid’s put together.

Markle detailed how she tries to make this time of year special for her family. “We’re creating new ones now that our little ones are growing up. And we’re enjoying every moment of it,” Markle told E! News during Variety’s recent Power of Women event. She also detailed the one activity she can’t get enough of during the season.

“I love trimming and decorating the tree with my children,” she said. She also said that the family has fun with school drop-offs in normal times and has an affinity for milkshakes.

She also expanded on how she has handled her kids wants and desires during the holiday. During a Netflix Q&A for the film The After, with star David Oyelowo and director Misan Harriman, she shared a funny moment with her son. “The inspiration runs deep,” Markle explains. “Our 4-year-old — 4 ½ -year-old son, he would say, ‘No, I’m not 4. I’m 4 ½ —Misan was showing him how to do photography the last time he was with us, and I bought Archie a camera, and he said, ‘But it’s not a Leica like Misan.” She added that she explained how he’s “not getting a Leica! Not even for Christmas.'”

What the Sussexes seem to be preparing for is a potential Christmas invitation from King Charles. which a source indicated wouldn’t be turned down if offered. “I can’t imagine the Sussexes would decline an invitation to spend time with His Majesty. As of yet, there have not been any invitations for the holidays,” the source said.

Still, a recent book throws some complications into the mix when it comes to any potential return to the fold with her royal family in-laws. “Quite early on in the [book-writing] process, some of those Meghan sources that I really leant on in the earlier years this time were like, ‘You know what? She doesn’t want anything to do with it,'” Royal expert Omid Scobie said in his new book, Endgame. “For Harry it’s different. He still has unfinished business when it comes to his battles with the press. His challenge will be to find something that balances that out so we can see him working in a space that isn’t connected to the ties that bind from the past.”

It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out going forward. What side will relent first and try to peacefully solve issues with the royals.
