Meghan Marke has opened up about celebrating Thanksgiving this week with her husband, Prince Harry and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, in a new interview.

The Duchess of Sussex spoke to Marie Claire and revealed how her own family will be celebrating this year’s festivities.

The interview took place at a holiday dinner in California back in October, in celebration of the Archewell Foundation’s Welcome Project – an initiative launched in 2023, which aims to support programmes for women who have resettled in the United States from Afghanistan.

Thanksgiving is an annual holiday in America which celebrates thankfulness and is marked on the fourth Thursday of every November. It also marks the beginning of the festive season that leads up to Christmas.

Speaking to the outlet, Meghan revealed that there’s always something happening in the Sussex household to mark the occasion, and this year will be no different.

She said: “We’re always making sure we have something fun to do.

“Like any other family you spend time having a great meal and then what do you do? Play games, all the same stuff, someone brings a guitar—fun.”

The duchess added that she makes sure her two children can get to experience “the magic” of traditions like “great recipes that they end up connecting to a formative memory” at Thanksgiving” or putting out “carrots for the reindeer” at Christmas.

She said: “Every single holiday is a new adventure.”

For Thanksgiving, the Sussexes like to keep things “always pretty low-key”, according to the duchess, who emphasised the importance of being close to her mum, saying “being close to my mom is great”.

She added: “I was thinking about, in the past few years of having Thanksgiving here, like many of us, I think you always make sure there’s room at the table for your friends who don’t have family, which is really key”.

Meghan also revealed that she once had American social activist and feminist organiser Gloria Steinem join her on Thanksgiving as one of her guests.

The duchess said: “I love the holidays.”
