Archie and Lilibet’s Heartfelt Birthday Message to King Charles
Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet recently sent a touching birthday message to King Charles as he celebrated his 75th birthday on Tuesday.
The royal siblings serenaded their grandfather with a rendition of “Happy Birthday,” a gesture that was captured in a video sent to the monarch by their father, Prince Harry.
In a surprising turn of events, Prince Harry reached out to his father on his special day to convey his well wishes, marking a rare moment of communication between the Sussex family and senior members of the royal household.
Meghan Markle also reportedly spoke to King Charles, signaling a potential thaw in the previously strained relationship.
Despite this unexpected olive branch extended by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, it is anticipated that the couple will opt to spend the upcoming Christmas festivities in California, where they have resided for the past few years.
This decision comes as no surprise, considering that Harry and Meghan have chosen to celebrate the holiday season away from the UK for the past three years.
While Princess Lilibet has never experienced Christmas in the UK, it is believed that this year, both Archie, aged 4, and Lilibet, aged 2, will be introduced to British holiday traditions.
Royal expert Katie Nicholl shared insights with GBNews.com, highlighting Harry's intention to create a British Christmas atmosphere for his children, albeit in a Californian setting.
Nicholl expressed that while Harry may feel moments of homesickness during the festive season, he is committed to incorporating familiar British customs into their celebrations.
From decorating the Christmas tree with Archie to embracing other traditional practices, the Duke of Sussex is determined to provide his children with a taste of a British Christmas, even though they will not be partaking in the customary royal experience at Sandringham.
