Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly preparing to spend another Christmas away from the Royal Family, with fresh claims suggesting the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are not expecting an invitation to the traditional festive gathering at Sandringham. The couple, who stepped back from their roles as senior working royals in 2020, have spent the past several Christmases celebrating separately from King Charles III and the wider royal household.

Now, reports surrounding their plans for the 2026 festive season have reignited speculation about whether the family rift can ever be repaired. According to reports, Harry and Meghan are planning to spend the holidays in California with Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland. However, the reported arrangements do not necessarily mean the King has formally refused to invite his son and daughter-in-law.
