While the royal family gathered at Sandringham for Christmas, Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet spent the holiday at their home in Montecito.
In a new message to her brand As Ever’s newsletter, the Duchess of Sussex shared insight into her family’s holiday. “Last night, I was nibbling the remnants of our Christmas Eve feast (dim sum this year), wrapping a few last minute gifts, and tip toe-ing down the stairs with my husband to make sure ‘Santa’ had enjoyed his cookies and ‘the reindeer’ had eaten their carrots – anything to maintain the morning magic of Christmas through our children’s eyes,” she wrote. “I plan to spend today cuddled up with my family – maybe pajamas all day, some Scrabble or Sequence (or Candyland for the kids), music playing, candles flickering, dogs snoring, endless grazing; the laughter, the sidebars, the deep breaths (you know the ones), the fun, and the memories.”
She concluded, “I hope that whether you’re cozied up in your pajamas like we are, or dressed to the nines, whether you’re with a huge gathering, with your partner, your kids, or on your own – wherever you happen to find yourself today reading this note – that you know I am wishing you a very Merry Christmas, and all the blessings that come with it. From my family to yours – Happy Holidays!”
The Sussexes last spent Christmas in the UK in 2019; since, they have celebrated in Canada and the U.S. They recently shared a holiday card that featured highlights from their year, and Meghan also posted a sweet snap of their family of four on her Instagram.
