Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s marriage seems to be safe from the celestial gods — for now.A fortuneteller claimed that a particular royal couple would be headed toward divorce in 2024, according to the News International.However, that divine pairing was not the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Albania’s Crown Prince Leka II and Crown Princess Elia announced they were splitting up Monday after seven years of marriage.Psychic Sally Morgan also gave her take on the future of the former “Suits” star, 42, and the Invictus Games founder, 39, earlier this month.She noted that the pair “will remain strong as a couple” in an interview with Closer magazine.Markle and Harry, who live in Montecito, California, with their two kids, Archie and Lilibet, also probably won’t be leaving the United States.The duo married in 2018 at St.

Kate Middleton celebrated her 42nd birthday on Tuesday, 9 January surrounded by family and sweet treats made by her three young children. To mark the Princess of Wales's birthday, King Charles and Queen Camilla shared a stunning photo of their daughter-in-law that was taken behind the scenes at the Coronation last year.

The Royal Family welcomed back Sarah Ferguson to one of their most significant occasions, suggesting that "all is not lost" with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle amid the rift, a royal expert said. On Christmas Day 2023, the Duchess of York joined her ex-husband, Prince Andrew, their two daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie along with other members of the Royal Family at Sandringham.

As the fallout from the unsealed list of names linked to the late convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein continues, King Charles is reportedly considering a strategic move to shield the Royal Family from further embarrassment. The Duke of York, Prince Andrew, finds himself among the 170 individuals named in the list, which was recently made public by a New York judge.

As reported continue to swirl that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are trying to action their '2024 redemption plan', a royal author has claimed Prince William and Kate Middleton have made it "clear" the Sussexes are not welcome in the Royal Family. Harry, 39, and Meghan, 42, are said to be working on rehabilitating their image after a drama-filled few years, but the couple failed to attend another Christmas with the Royal Family, opting to remain in California.

Princess Eugenie has "maintained a close relationship" with Prince Harry amid the Royal Family rift, with hopes that Sarah Ferguson could "act as a mentor" for a family reunion. Since The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down from their royal duties in 2020, tensions have noticeably grown with the Royal Family, including with brother Prince William and father King Charles.Things blew up after Harry released his explosive memoir Spare last year, along with their tell-all Oprah Winfrey interview and revealing Netflix docu-series.The couple, who reside in Montecito, California, made a modest appearance for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee and funeral in 2022, but Harry attended his father's Coronation solo last year.They have since been noticeably distant from the Royal Family with their relationships yet to be rekindled.

They've just spent another Christmas in the US, but Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could be set to finally reunite with the Royal Family in 2024, a royal expert has claimed. Harry, 39, and Meghan, 42, moved to America after stepping down as senior Royals in 2020 and their relationship with the Firm, most notably King Charles and Prince William, has only become more strained.

Prince William once got into a "water fight" when he let loose during a Royal Family Christmas party. It has been revealed that the Prince was playing around with a member of staff in St James' Palace, while in the company of Prince Harry and Camilla. Former royal butler Grant Harrold, recalled the moment and other "hilarious" times in an interview with Slingo.

The Royal Family owns homes, castles and palaces all over the country with many of them being bought with private funds. While events such as Easter are spent at Windsor Castle, Christmas is typically enjoyed at the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. Last year's festive period was a huge step forward for more reasons than one.

“Charles III: The Coronation Year,” which aired on Dec. 26, Elliot gave her take on the royal couple’s marriage, calling her sister the king’s “rock.”“She’s somebody who is completely loyal and she isn’t somebody who has huge highs and lows,” the Queen’s sister said.

King Charles has reportedly adopted Prince Harry's role of jokester this year over the Christmas period.

From travelling the world to living in palaces, it would be hard to argue that being a member of the royal family didn't come without its perks. But alongside these benefits comes a long list of rules that members of the family must remember and comply with. In terms of fashion and beauty, there are ample style regulations put in place that must be followed at all times.This includes things from no bright nail varnish to female royals not being allowed to take their coats off while in public - no matter the temperature.

Prince William has revealed that he loves to play a Christmas game with his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, which often leaves everyone "very cross".The Prince of Wales shared this during a special chat in 2021 with Radio Marsden, a radio station serving the Royal Marsden Hospital, where he is a patron. During the conversation, a boy named Henry asked Prince William about his favourite board game.To this, the future King replied: "Henry, we are playing board games with the children quite a lot.

After two days of eating and drinking in lavish style, Boxing Day is when many of the royals get up early, pull on their waxed Barbour jackets and wellington boots, and load their guns for a day of shooting on the 20,000-acre Sandringham estate. Although for many of us the day is about strolling off the excesses, playing games and snuggling in front of the TV, senior members of the family are expected to join the hunt for plump pheasants or grouse.

The Royal Family take part in many traditions each Christmas - some of which are classic and others which are unique to them. From attending a church service, just like many of us up and down the UK to opening their presents on Christmas Eve to pay homage to their German heritage, the royals' day will be enjoyed by everyone. But every year, the family attracts huge amounts of criticism for one custom that traditionally takes place on Boxing Day.

The royal family marked Christmas Day by attending the traditional festive church service on the King’s Sandringham estate.

Along with cringey cracker jokes, fights over the best Quality Street chocolate and post-lunch naps in front of the TV, Christmas Day would not feel right if we didn’t see the royals heading off on their seasonal trip to church. While the service at St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham is a strictly private affair, all eyes turn on the family as they make their way there, often stopping to chat to locals who gather to give their seasonal greetings. Last year, the family headed to church for the first time without Queen Elizabeth II leading the way.

Gift-giving can be a challenging affair when your nearest and dearest already own priceless jewels, designer clothes and luxury cars. So instead of splashing out on expensive, over-the-top items, the royals don’t take seasonal gifting seriously.

Far from the world of royal banquets and formal regal traditions, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex prefer a more low-key Christmas these days. Since moving to balmy Montecito in California in March 2020, Harry, Meghan and their two children Prince Archie, four, and Princess Lilibet, two, have opted for relaxed festive celebrations on their luxury five-acre estate. “We’re probably talking barbecues and walks on the beach for the Sussexes rather than obligatory black-tie dinners and pheasant shoots at Sandringham,” says royal expert Duncan Larcombe.

The royals have enjoyed spending Christmas at Sandringham for decades, and after creating so many special memories there with the late Queen, the King seems keen for them to keep making more. “Christmas at Sandringham has been absolutely central to the family for years, and that legacy looks certain to continue with Charles,” says royal expert Duncan Larcombe.
