Why Meghan Markle, Prince Harry may never be invited to royal family Christmas celebrations?

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may never be invited to family Christmas celebrations at Sandringham, a former royal aide and Princess Diana’s friend has claimed.

Speaking to the OK! former butler Paul Burrell has claimed this amid reports Meghan and Harry did not received invite to spend Christmas 2025 with royal family.

The California-based royal couple have not spent a Christmas at Sandringham since 2018.

When the former aide was asked what it would take for the King to invite Harry back into the royal fold for Christmas celebrations, Burrell said, “That will never happen. I’ve always said it, and I’ll say it again: it will never happen.”

He also revealed the reason why King Charles and even Prince William, when becomes King, will not invite Meghan and Harry.

Paul Burrell said, “And the reason is simple—you have to consider the dynamics of everyone living under one roof. If you were to inject Harry and Meghan into that mix, into that very particular “soup” of royalty, it would become a complete disaster.”

“The family get along because they understand one another, and they understand the routines and traditions that shape those Christmases. Meghan clearly doesn’t, and she wouldn’t fit in. And beyond that, her presence would make everyone else uncomfortable as well,” the expert continued.

He further said, “Harry himself would have an awful time. There’s simply no place for them at Sandringham anymore—there never will be, not even when William becomes king. They simply cannot be trusted to keep what happens at Sandringham a secret.”
