Prince Harry and the Royal Family Already Have a Plan for Keeping in Touch on Christmas, Apparently


From Marie Claire

This year, like many families around the world, the royal family will be celebrating Christmas apart, observing social distancing guidelines put in place as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and their son, Archie Harrison, will be celebrating from their new home in California, but are said to be on better terms lately with the rest of the royal family than they were even earlier this year.

A source close to the royal family told ET Online that the royals are planning Zoom calls and to play games with each other online since they can't be together at the Queen's estate in Sandringham this year.

If your Christmas plans look much different this year than usual, then you're definitely not alone. The royal family usually gathers at the Queen's estate in Sandringham to celebrate the Christmas holidays, but this year, they'll be celebrating separately from different locations because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The Queen and Prince Philip announced earlier this month that they will be celebrating the holidays quietly from Windsor Castle, for example. While it's not known exactly where many members of the royal family will be celebrating just yet, Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and their son, Archie Harrison, will be celebrating from their new home in Montecito, California.
