The royals gather for a Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace before the Queen leaves to spend the holiday at Sandringham

skipping the annual holiday festivities at Sandringham

next week. Meghan made her Christmas debut with the royal family in 2017 after the couple’s engagement was announced, and again in 2018 after they were married. “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are looking forward to extended family time towards the end of this month,” Buckingham Palace said in a statement. “Having spent the last two Christmases at Sandringham, Their Royal Highnesses will spend the holiday this year, as a new family, with the Duchess’ mother Doria Ragland. This decision is in line with precedent set previously by other members of the Royal Family, and has the support of Her Majesty The Queen.

While Meghan and Harry missed the festive celebration at the palace, plenty of royals were in attendance.

WISDOM

They had other plans. Can't she eat lunch without people hoovering over her.🙄🙄🙄

Because they had other plans? Duh!

😮😮

Always that ... one .... two ... or three ... 😆

Skip it every year if you are smart lol! Stay away from that family.

U ppl can't read & understand what has been communicated? How pathetic!

Yes

Because William and Kate did in 2016 😳

who cares....bah humbug! :O)

The Queen is aging and there is no way to know how many years she has left to celebrate so I believe it is selfish of Meghan and Harry to skip the Queen's annual Christmas lunch. Harry would have been better off marrying someone that respects the royal tradition.

Why does it matter if they did or not?

If they hate being royals so much, why don’t they give up all of that money and move into an apartment somewhere. With no nannies no cooks no drivers.

So you lead off with Maghan and Harry. Sad.

Isn't this supposed to be a reputable news imagine? Why are you recycling a story that was released before thanksgiving just to fan the flames of the racist British population. I for one will stop buying your magazine and following you.

Because they’re tired of the Queen doing the whole “pull my finger” game. I would be too. Her farts probably smell like dust and crumpets. Am I right RoyalFamily? 😂

They want to be at peace without the hateful drama from the racist public and media.

Ever since he married her, things have gone downhill. Sad! Family first and Queen won’t live forever. They can do their own thing once she dies. Family values are disappearing.

Uggh....being a royal os so tough. I need a break.....smh.

cos meghan doesnt respect Royalty !!!

Because they're enjoying a well deserved Christmas in 🚀.

Hmm, I know this is a shot in the dark but I’m going to guess because everyone in the royal family treats them like pond scum? 🤷‍♀️

Must be slow day...

Because they felt like it! duh and who cares?

It was Archie's nap time...

Good god they only have a few more days to be private just leave them be and be the PR for Cambridges🙄

I feel the Duchess has been portrayed unfairly. I think it has a lot to do with Prince Harry's decisions but she is taking the blame in the public eye. All families have their issues...why should the Royal Family be an exception?

Because they’re not even in England right now. They’re in CA on a break from all the royalty crap.

Thought all was explained in that very detailed statement. The desperation is REAL and ANNOYING

who cares

Right now moving to England for a few days sounds nice lol

I've seen alot of unfair article's about megan but who knows I'm not there

You tell us, thought that's your job?

Idk but I'll join I'm hungry 😎 who knows what's true anymore you never know what's really going on within

Stop recycling a story we already know. They have said in a statement that they will spend Christmas with Doria
