The 94-year-old monarch's annual Christmas message was broadcast on Friday, and this year, it touched on the challenges the world has faced amid the coronavirus pandemic. The queen, who usually has a variety of personal family photos displayed on her desk during the speech, had just one this year: of her husband, Prince Philip.

Even the Queen struggles with video chatting from time to time. When the spread of coronavirus forced a great deal of the world to stay at home, people had to adapt to a new way of conducting business, which meant more meetings via video chat.

The Sussexes were apparently “delighted” to open up their doors to their cousins, but the Queen was said to be less than thrilled about the move, which took place under the cover of darkness.

Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan’s decision to step back from their royal roles captured the world’s attention earlier this year, and nine months later, their new lives in the United States as full-time philanthropists and nonprofit founders has continued to intrigue and inspire millions.

But they didn’t act fast enough: Gert’s Royals captured a screenshot, and social media users had thoughts.
