Princess Eugenie Finds Herself in a Festive Dilemma: Sandringham or Montecito?

As the holiday season fast approaches, Princess Eugenie finds herself navigating a tricky family situation. With invitations from both Sandringham and Montecito, Eugenie must decide where to spend her Christmas.

Reports suggest that Eugenie and her family have been invited to join Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in their home in California for the holidays. Sources indicate that Eugenie’s children, August (3) and Ernest (1), could benefit from some quality cousin bonding time with Archie and Lilibet.Meanwhile, the 34-year-old royal, along with her husband Jack Brooksbank, 38, is also expected at the traditional royal celebrations at Sandringham. According to insiders, the choice between the two locales is not easy, as each holds its unique appeal.

Veteran former BBC Royal correspondent Jennie Bond weighed in on the situation to OK!. She noted, “This is a delicate situation for Eugenie. It would be bad form to turn down an invitation to Sandringham. But she does value her relationship with Harry and Meghan too. A New Year’s visit could be a nice compromise.”
