Prince Harry is feeling “lonely” and “estranged” following reports he has not been invited to spend Christmas at Sandringham Hall with the Royal Family, according to an insider.

The Duke of Sussex, now 40, hasn’t celebrated Christmas with his family for six years, instead marking the season with his wife, Meghan Markle, 43.

In September a source told the Express that the Sussexes have not yet received a Sandringham invitation this year.

“Prince Harry is keen to spend the Christmas holidays in the UK with his wife and children- but Meghan wants to stay in the US,” Andrews wrote in Woman magazine.

“It’s a tricky time for Harry – he hasn’t spent Christmas here for six years and he could be forgiven for feeling rather lonely and estranged from his Windsor relatives.”

Christmas at Sandringham traditionally sees the royal family gathering for church services and seasonal celebrations.

This year, Andrews said, the Sandringham celebrations will include the likes of “Eugenie, Beatrice, Zara and Peter Phillips”.

Since marrying Meghan, Harry has only spent two Christmases with the royals, with their last in 2019 on Vancouver Island, before stepping down as senior royals in early 2020.

In September, a source told the Express that while an invitation to Sandringham had yet to be extended to the Sussexes, Harry’s uncle, Charles Spencer, had invited the couple to celebrate Christmas at Althorp House in Northamptonshire.

“Charles [Spencer] has invited Harry, Meghan, and the children to Althorp this Christmas,” the source shared.

“It’s far too early to say whether they will take him up on it, but the offer is there if they want it.”

While the couple recently purchased a luxury holiday house in Portugal, they are reportedly very cautious about returning to the UK.

After stepping back as working royals, Harry and Meghan lost their taxpayer-funded security, a decision that has since led Harry to seek legal recourse for the reinstatement of security during their UK visits.

“The UK is my home. It was with great sadness to both of us that my wife and I felt forced to step back from this role and leave the country in 2020,” Harry said in a statement to the British High Court last year.

“The UK is central to the heritage of my children and a place I want them to feel at home as much as where they live at the moment in the United States. That cannot happen if there is no possibility to keep them safe when they are on UK soil.”

Despite their noble royal lineage, Prince George and Princess Charlotte have very ordinary career dreams.

It seems that even members of the British royal family have their own career aspirations. Prince George, who is next in line to the throne after his father, Prince William, has expressed an interest in becoming a police officer. Meanwhile, Princess Charlotte wants to be a nurse.

This is entirely possible because before taking on royal duties, many members of the royal family have worked in ordinary jobs. Prince William and Princess Kate are no exception. Before becoming a helicopter pilot for East Anglian Air Ambulance, Prince William served in the Royal Air Force. Meanwhile, Princess Kate also worked part-time at the retail chain Jigsaw after graduating from university.

Prince Harry, George and Charlotte’s uncle, also served in the army for 10 years. Queen Camilla also previously worked as a receptionist and secretary.

In 2018, at an event at Kensington Palace, Prince William revealed that Prince George “absolutely loved” being a police officer. He said: “George is obsessed with police… cars, toys, everything.”

At the event, Police Commissioner Jayne Richardson explained to William the need for more officers in the area, joking: “We’re recruiting, so if George and Charlotte want to…?”

This is not the first time Prince William has spoken about his son’s love for police work. During a trip to Helsinki in 2017, he sent a handwritten letter to Santa Claus, asking for only one Christmas present: a police car.

Meanwhile, Princess Charlotte wants to become a nurse. Her dream was sparked after hearing Prince William explain the work that NHS staff do. According to New Idea, a source close to the Royal Family said Charlotte has told her parents that she hopes to become a nurse in the future.

The source added: “Charlotte is obviously just a child but Will and Kate are very proud of their daughter. She is a thoughtful girl and knows what she wants. So they wouldn’t be surprised if Charlotte actually pursues nursing when she grows up.”

Here is how the line of the succession to the British throne has changed following the death of the Queen.

The Prince of Wales, who was at the top as Elizabeth II’s heir apparent, has acceded to the throne as King.

All those below Charles move up one place, with the Duke of Cambridge first in line as the new heir to the throne.

Prince George
Princess Charlotte
Prince Louis
Duke of Sussex
Archie Mountbatten-Windsor
Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor
Duke of York
Princess Beatrice
Sienna Mapelli Mozzi

Prince George is now second in line, followed by third in line Princess Charlotte, and then Prince Louis who is in fourth place.

The Duke of Sussex, who quit as a senior working royal and moved to the US in 2020, still retains his succession rights despite stepping away from the monarchy.

He moves from sixth in line to fifth.

Harry’s son Archie Mountbatten-Windsor is sixth in line – his highest position so far, having been born seventh-in-line in 2019.

Archie’s sister Lilibet ‘Lili’ Mountbatten-Windsor jumps into her brother’s former spot at seventh in line.

The Duke of York moves up to eighth place – Andrew is still in the line of succession despite stepping down from royal duties and settling out of court in a civil sexual assault case.

His elder daughter Princess Beatrice moves to ninth and her baby daughter Sienna Mapelli Mozzi, born in September 2021, has become 10th in line.

Meghan Markle is opting to keep her personal memoir “in her back pocket” should she need it later “for revenge,” according to a royal expert.

Earlier this year, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, was said to have been planning to expand on the mental health struggles she faced during her time in the palace in a tell-all book.

While there’s been no official word from the Sussex camp, royal correspondent and commentator Jennie Bond believes that the “Suits” alum could use the project to her advantage in the future.

“It’s more than two years since she gave that interview, and she has steered clear of controversy about the royal family since,” Bond told OK!

“Obviously, the journal she mentioned will remain a potential weapon in her back pocket if she ever feels the need to seek some sort of revenge.”

Bond continued, “But she has behaved with discretion and dignity ever since Oprah and the documentary series. I think she is looking forwards, not backwards and is moving on with her life. So I don’t think we should be raising false alarms about any potential memoir.”

The Post has reached out to Markle’s reps for comment.

Markle previously revealed she had battled suicidal thoughts during life as a royal in the UK, and briefly touched on her experience again in a CBS interview in August.

Rumors of Markle’s tell-all book have been swirling ever since husband Prince Harry’s bombshell memoir “Spare” hit shelves in January 2023.

The explosive book, which left no stone unturned about the duke’s time at the Firm, became the fastest-selling nonfiction book of all time.

However, despite the reports, a source familiar with the couple’s projects has denied the claims.

It wouldn’t be Markle’s first written project if the rumors are true.

The duo, who wed in 2018, signed a lucrative four-book deal with Penguin Random House in 2021.

Markle became a published author after releasing her children’s book, “The Bench,” that same year.

Since then, she’s gone on to release a podcast, “Archetypes” (which was scrapped by Spotify in June 2023 after 12 episodes), as well as a lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, which has yet to be launched.

Royal fans have been left disappointed after Prince Harry reportedly criticized his brother, Prince William, for allegedly dancing at Taylor Swift’s London Eras tour. The incident, which has sparked a wave of reactions online, highlights the ongoing tension between the two brothers.

According to sources, Prince William attended the concert and was seen enjoying himself, even dancing to some of Taylor Swift’s biggest hits. However, Prince Harry’s comments about his brother’s behavior have taken many by surprise. Harry allegedly expressed disapproval, suggesting that such public displays are unbecoming of a future king.

Fans who were excited to see members of the royal family having fun at a popular event like Taylor Swift’s concert are now disappointed by the rift it has seemingly caused. Many took to social media to express their frustration, with some defending Prince William’s right to enjoy the concert and others questioning why Prince Harry would criticize such a lighthearted moment.

The incident adds another layer to the already complex relationship between the brothers, further fueling public interest and speculation about the state of their bond. As the fallout continues, royal watchers are left wondering if this latest disagreement will have a lasting impact on their relationship.

It seems Meghan Markle left quite an impression on her Suits co-star, Patrick J. Adams, because he knew she was going to make it big from the very first time they met. During the second episode of Adams and co-star Sarah Rafferty’s (who played Donna Paulson on the hit show) new podcast, “Sidebar: A Suits Watch Podcast,” Adams recalled working with Markle for the first time and their immediate chemistry.

“It was pretty clear, if I remember correctly, that she was going to get the part from the minute we did the chemistry read,” Adams remembered. “It was just so much easier than it was with anybody else.”

When Rafferty asked Adams about his first encounter with Markle, the actor revealed that the two had actually shot a different pilot together before Suits that never took off.

“Meghan and I had done a pilot before, a terrible, terrible pilot together,” he told Rafferty. “I won’t even say the name of it, but you can IMDb it. There was a setting up of a romantic relationship in the pilot. And then, we never saw each other again. The pilot failed. It was terrible and went away. And so we had never seen each other nor spoken to each other again.”

When they reunited at the Suits casting call for a chemistry read (Adams was the first character to be cast), the familiarity between them calmed their nerves.

“I think just knowing each other and getting to calm down and not have those nerves of just getting to know one another really helped that chemistry read,” he said.

Markle and Adams’s chemistry read was a scene that fans will be familiar with: “It was this scene and the next one where she walks Mike through the whole office,” he shared. “She crushed it and she crushes it in the show.”

The show ran from 2011 to 2019, though Markle left the series shortly after meeting Prince Harry. The show had a resurgence after being released on Netflix during the SAG-Aftra and Writer’s Guild strikes.

In a shocking revelation that has sent ripples through the British royal family and captivated public attention, Princess Anne has made explosive claims implicating Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, in the circumstances surrounding the tragic passing of Princess Diana. This unprecedented announcement comes three decades after Diana’s untimely death, stirring emotions and reigniting longstanding controversies.

In a candid interview, Princess Anne, the only sister of the late Diana, spoke openly about the complicated relationships within the royal family, particularly between Diana and Camilla. “For years, we’ve been silent, but it’s time for the truth to be told,” Anne declared. “Diana was not only a beloved figure but a victim of a toxic environment that many of us tried to ignore.

Princess Anne’s comments shed new light on the dynamics that existed during Diana’s life, suggesting that Camilla’s presence played a significant role in the emotional turmoil experienced by the Princess of Wales. “Camilla’s actions, both during and after Diana’s marriage to Charles, contributed to a narrative that ultimately hurt Diana deeply,” Anne asserted, alluding to the public’s perception of the love triangle that ensnared the royal family.

Anne’s revelations come at a time when public interest in the royal family is at an all-time high, particularly regarding the legacy of Princess Diana. With the release of new documentaries and memoirs, many are re-examining the events leading up to her tragic death in 1997. The continued fascination with Diana’s life and legacy serves as a reminder of the unresolved issues that linger within the royal family.

The fallout from Anne’s statements has been immediate. Royal insiders and commentators are debating the implications of her words, questioning whether this could lead to a rift between the royal family members. Commentator Richard Fitzwilliams remarked, “This is a watershed moment. If true, it challenges everything we thought we knew about the royal family’s past.”

As the public digests this explosive news, calls for accountability are growing louder. Many are demanding that the royal family address these allegations head-on, pushing for transparency regarding their past actions and relationships.

With the royal family’s reputation hanging in the balance, Princess Anne’s bold statements may force a reckoning not only within the family but also among the British public, who have long admired and scrutinized the lives of its royal members. As the secrets of the past come to light, the world watches closely, eager for answers about one of history’s most tragic and enigmatic figures.

Add Gorgeous George to the list of Hollywood stars “ditching” the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Citing sources, the U.K. Mirror suggested Meghan Markle once enjoyed a close friendship with George Clooney but the relationship ended shortly after Meghan and Prince Harry’s 2018 wedding.

The Oceans 11, 12 and 13 star and his wife, Amal, reportedly would visit the royal couple’s homes in Los Angeles and Oxfordshire but the movie star and his wife are “more linked to King Charles now,” the Mirror reported. They appeared at a Prince’s Trust event in London in May.

BATRA’S BURNING QUESTIONS: Should Prince Harry share his frostbitten “todger” story with a therapist?
The Sun’s Editor-in-Chief Adrienne Batra says Prince Harry telling the story about treating his frostbitten groin and thinking of his mother is disturbing and may have been better shared with a therapist.

Clooney was recently asked whether he knew Meghan and replied, “I don’t.” He made the response despite having attended the Windsor Chapel wedding, according to the U.K. Mail.

Clooney’s apparent fallout with the Sussexes comes on the heels of suggestions that Harry and Meghan are getting “ignored” by Hollywood A-listers as the Duchess aims to become a “power player” in Tinsel town.

Markle, the former Suits star and one-time Toronto resident, was recently reported to have signed with esteemed talent agency William Morris Endeavour.

OU’RE A FAILURE TO THE ROYAL FAMILY! Zara Tindall Destroyed Meghan On Mike Talk Show

If drama were currency, the British Royal Family would be rolling in riches. In the latest episode of this real-life soap opera, Zara Tindall—Princess Anne’s sporty horse-riding daughter and Queen Elizabeth II’s eldest granddaughter—has thrown her gauntleted hat into the ring.

But this isn’t about equestrian excellence; Zara has been candid and rather spicy in her commentary on the ongoing Royal Family feud, especially when it comes to Meghan Markle.

From subtle shade to outright criticism, her statements have set tongues wagging and created ripples in the usually stiff-upper-lip world of royalty.

In the latest episode of the ongoing royal drama, Zara Tindall, known for her sporty prowess and royal lineage as Queen Elizabeth II’s eldest granddaughter, has boldly stepped into the spotlight with her unfiltered commentary on the tumultuous dynamics within the Windsor family.

Her remarks, laden with subtle jabs and outright criticisms, particularly aimed at Meghan Markle, have ignited a frenzy of speculation and debate in the typically reserved world of royalty.

Zara, often maintaining a low profile compared to her more media-friendly cousins, Prince William and Prince Harry, has recently made headlines for her outspokenness.

Her candid observations have not minced words when addressing the royal family’s inner turmoil, notably exacerbated by Meghan Markle’s entry into the fold.

Critics and supporters alike have polarized opinions on Zara’s outspoken stance. Some applaud her for daring to voice what many perceive as lingering tensions and frustrations within the royal ranks. They see her as a refreshing voice of honesty in a milieu often cloaked in discretion.

Others, however, argue that her comments add unnecessary fuel to already contentious issues, suggesting diplomacy might serve better in maintaining family unity.

The repercussions of Zara’s words ripple through both the public and within royal corridors.

They have sparked intense scrutiny and raised questions about the future dynamics of the royal family. Will her outspokenness lead to a much-needed airing of grievances and foster understanding? Or will it deepen existing divides, casting shadows over familial bonds?

As the saga unfolds, one thing is certain: Zara Tindall’s voice has carved out a significant role in the ongoing narrative of royal controversy.

Whether seen as a provocateur or a truth-teller, her contributions promise to resonate through the corridors of royal intrigue for some time to come.

Meghan Markle might be one of the most famous women on the planet — but Hollywood power players are purportedly less than impressed with her showbiz prowess.

The Duchess of Sussex, 42, is said to be scrambling after the launch of her forthcoming podcast with Lemonada Media was reportedly pushed back to next year.

According to In Touch, honchos at the company put the project on pause for fear that the upcoming launch of her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, would take attention away from her audio endeavors.

“Meghan gets greedy,” an inside source told the publication.

“She wants everything all at once, and it’s backfiring on her again. She’s become a total joke and is overplaying her hand.”

Lemonada execs are also allegedly worried that Markle’s upcoming Netflix cooking show will divert attention from the podcast.

“That clearly didn’t go down well with Lemonada,” the source stated.

“They surely expected to be Meghan’s priority project, but she must have decided she had bigger fish to fry with Netflix.”The purported pushback of the podcast comes after Markle’s Spotify series “Archetypes” was not renewed for a second season.

The source says Markle now desperately needs a hit with her Netflix show or her lifestyle brand in order to prove that she and husband Prince Harry are still viable in Hollywood.

However, the insider isn’t holding out hope.

“Almost everything they’ve tried has ended in disaster,” they tartly declared.

Meanwhile, one well-placed source in Tinseltown told In Touch that A-listers have little respect for the Duchess, who commands big bucks for her content.

What do you think? Be the first to comment.

“Hollywood is glam and glitz on the outside, but the real stars have worked hard for their success — and you get the impression hard work isn’t really Meghan’s thing,” the anonymous source says.

“Now, after all her failures, those A-listers — and the royals — are laughing at her!”

The Prince and Princess of Wales held a private meeting with a budding photographer today who is battling a rare and aggressive form of cancer.

Princess Kate has surprised royal watchers today by sharing photos of a private meeting at Windsor Castle.

Kate, 42, and her husband the Prince of Wales met an aspiring teenage photographer with a rare and aggressive form of cancer after inviting her to take pictures at William’s Windsor Castle investiture.

The princess looked well in the two images shared by Kensington Palace on social media, wearing a maroon suit, smoky eye make up and her trademark brunette locks down.

The first image shows Kate hugging 16-year-old Liz Hatton, from Harrogate, after the royal couple met the youngster after the ceremony on Wednesday.

While the second is a group shot of the prince and princess with Liz and her family.

In a personal message on social media, William and Kate said: “A pleasure to meet with Liz at Windsor today. A talented young photographer whose creativity and strength has inspired us both. Thank you for sharing your photos and story with us. W&C.”

Liz is trying to take part in as many photography experiences as possible and was invited to Windsor Castle today by William to take photos of recipients and learn about the different pictures that are taken throughout the day.

The heir to the throne found out about Liz through the London Air Ambulance Charity of which he is Patron of and held an engagement with on Monday alongside David Beckham.

Liz responded to the post on her own Instagram account, and wrote: “Such lovely, genuine and kind people, I’m over the moon that my family and I had this experience.”

While William’s role in the investiture ceremony has been recorded on the court circular – a record of royal engagements – the couple’s meeting with Liz and her family was not because it was private.

Kate has been seen only a handful of times this year after battling her own cancer diagnosis.

However, since revealing last month that she had completed her course of chemotherapy she has started to return to work, conducting two meetings at Windsor Castle.

The first was on her Early Years project and the second involved planning for her annual Christmas Carol service, which she hopes to attend in December.

Kate is also expected to attend the Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph on November 10.

 

She held her first official meeting in more than nine months, where she hosted a chat with senior officials who work with Kate’s Early Years’ initiative.

The princess revealed she had completed her treatment last month, and admitted she hopes to appear at a handful of engagements before the end of the year.

The official Court Circular, which lists all royal engagements, read: “The Princess of Wales, Joint Patron, The Royal Foundation of The Prince and Princess of Wales, this afternoon held an Early Years Meeting at Windsor Castle.”

There were no photos of the meeting but it is understood she was joined by members of her household team and representatives from the The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood.
