Despite not celebrating the holidays with the royal family, Prince Harry is reportedly determined to provide a British Christmas experience for his children, Archie and Lilibet, according to royal commentator Katie Nicholl.
Speaking to GBNews, Nicholl acknowledged that the Duke of Sussex, who has been expressing a sense of homesickness, wants to incorporate his favorite British holiday traditions into their celebrations in California. She mentioned, "California is a world away from Britain and a world away from a British Christmas. I suspect they will have many of the British traditions that Harry is used to, we have seen him dressing the tree with Archie."
Nicholl highlighted that Harry and Meghan Markle would strive to recreate a British Christmas atmosphere in California, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the traditions that are meaningful to Harry. However, she noted that the couple won't experience the traditional royal Christmas at Sandringham, as they were not invited by King Charles to join the royal family festivities.
Despite the physical distance from the UK, Prince Harry's efforts to infuse British Christmas traditions into their celebrations reflect a desire to maintain a connection with his heritage and provide his children with a sense of their British roots.
