Meghan Markle is reportedly excited to celebrate Christmas with her close friends from Hollywood.
This decision comes after learning that the royal family in the UK does not invite them to the traditional Christmas festivities at Sandringham.
According to a tabloid, Meghan is determined to restore her and Prince Harry’s reputation in the US following the release of a Family Guy episode that poked fun at the couple.
The Duchess of Sussex has received an invitation from her friends in Montecito to join their families in celebrating Christmas.
Instead of spending the day with Prince Harry’s closest friend, Meghan is eager to accept this invitation.
The source revealed that Harry, Meghan, and their children, Archie and Lilibet, have been invited to spend the festive season with Charlie Van Straubenze’s family.
Charlie is not only Harry’s best friend but also Archie’s godfather.
Their friendship has grown stronger recently, especially after a few distant years when Harry first moved to America.
Charlie and his family have homes in London and Lincolnshire.
Apart from the invitation they received from Charlie’s family, the Sussexes have also been extended several other invitations from their friends in the US for the holiday season.
It seems they have plenty of options to choose from.
However, there appears to be a deadlock in deciding where they should go, causing some tension among the couple.
The insider added that Meghan and Harry are upset about the fallout from their appearance on Family Guy.
Harry used to enjoy grand family Christmases, and it is disappointing that his children will miss out on such festive celebrations.
The source mentioned that Harry always believed that no one could celebrate Christmas like the Windsors.
Interestingly, there seems to be some controversy surrounding Meghan’s claim about receiving an invitation from David Foster and his wife Catherine McPhee for an extended Christmas weekend.
Rumors suggest that David and Catherine have cut ties with the Sussexes.
David Foster, a music producer, has played a significant role in Prince Harry’s life and is often referred to as his “other father.”
He helped the couple find a home in Canada before they eventually settled down in California.
Catherine McPhee, a musical star, had performed in school productions alongside Meghan but they were never close friends.
However, after performing in the musical Waitress in London, Catherine and her husband struck up a friendship with Harry and Meghan, which has continued since then.
It is believed that Harry and Meghan have had a falling out with David Foster.
Reports suggest that Meghan leaked their dinner outing and attempted to upstage Catherine by wearing a coat designed to spark pregnancy rumors.
There were also allegations of Meghan trying to involve their children in a paid paparazzi walk with Catherine and her kids, which David and Catherine refused.
The source revealed that Harry even texted David, suggesting that their son should end up with Harry’s daughter.
Furthermore, Harry and Meghan did not attend David and Catherine’s wedding in London, and both of them now regret their association with the Sussexes.
They view Harry and Meghan as obsessive, strange, and eccentric individuals.
Another issue that arose was Meghan’s alleged flirting with David Foster, which reportedly caused tension between her and Catherine McPhee.
Catherine did not appreciate Meghan’s behavior towards her husband, and David repeatedly told Meghan to stop.
When confronted about these allegations, Harry simply laughed them off, claiming that David and Catherine were making everything up due to jealousy over his wife’s attractiveness and that it was not his fault.
In conclusion, Meghan Markle is eagerly looking forward to celebrating Christmas with her Hollywood friends, as she and Prince Harry are not included in the royal family’s Christmas plans at Sandringham.
Despite the fallout from their appearance on Family Guy, the couple has received multiple invitations from friends in the US for the festive season.
