Meghan and Harry share festive Christmas card; 5compelling reason they miss out on showing Archie and Lilibet
Meghan and Harry have released their annual Christmas card, but decided not to show their two children Archie and Lilibet.
The card was released on Friday with a message reading: “On behalf of the office of Prince Harry & Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Archewell Productions and Archewell Foundation, we wish you a very happy holiday season.
“Thanks for all the support in 2023!”
The card also featured a highlights reels of Harry and Meghan’s best moments from the past year.
Deciding not to share a picture with their children, which they did in 2021 when they revealed Lilibet for the first time, the picture is diametrically opposed to William and Kate’s family-oriented Christmas card picture.
Chosen by the Prince and Princess of Wales, the picture features the family, all wearing plain shirts, arranged around a smiling Princess Charlotte who is seated on a chair.
The family photo was captured by Yorkshire-born photographer Josh Shinner whose previous sitters include Florence Pugh, Jodie Comer and Sam Smith.
Harry was awarded £140,600 in a phone hacking case against the newsgroup.
Following the trial, Harry’s lawyer in a statement accused TV presenter Piers Morgan of “clearly knowing about the illegal activities” taking place at Mirror Group Newspapers.
Morgan has in the past denied all allegations of wrongdoing when it comes to alleged unlawful information gathering.
Prince Harry’s representative David Sherborne spoke outside the court, reading a statement from the duke.
He said: “The court has ruled that unlawful and criminal activities were carried out at all three Mirror Group Newspaper titles… on a habitual and widespread basis for over more than a decade.
“This case is not just about hacking, it is about a systemic practice of unlawful and appalling behaviour, followed by coverups and destruction of evidence.”
Sherborne said the court found principal board directors, senior executives and editors “such as Piers Morgan clearly knew about or were involved in these illegal activities”.
![Prince Harry and Meghan Markle might be considering a move back to the UK, as suggested by a former royal butler. The couple, who famously stepped away from royal duties in 2020 to establish a more private life in California, have only made a few trips back to Britain since their departure. However, speculation is mounting that they could be eyeing a more permanent return. Despite their limited visits, both Harry and Meghan were present for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations, which coincided with Lilibet's first birthday. Last year saw Prince Harry attending King Charles' historic coronation at Westminster Abbey solo, as Meghan remained in the US due to the event clashing with Archie's fourth birthday. The Duke of Sussex made a swift return to their Montecito residence after briefly participating in the ceremony. He then made two short dashes over to the UK this year - one in the wake of the announcement of King Charles' cancer diagnosis, and another last month for an Invictus Games event. An ex-royal butler previously hinted that the Sussexes were contemplating a more lasting stay in the UK, with potential plans to purchase property, following their eviction from their Frogmore Cottage base on the Windsor Estate last summer. Grant Harrold, a former butler to King Charles, told the New York Post: "I'd never say never, it's always possible that one day he might want to come home, it's possible that he might buy [a property] here if he wanted to come over [more] and Meghan didn't want to come over. "Meghan doesn't really have any family here as such, all her family are in the States and that's where Harry has decided he wants to set up his home." Grant, who spoke for Oddspedia, comprehends the difficulty Prince Harry may have in completely leaving behind his British roots: "He'll want to have that association with Britain just in case one day he does want to come back and I don't think Harry will want to sever ties." However, Grant did acknowledge that Prince Harry seems "happy in the States" and noted that a return to the UK wouldn't be imminent, although he clarified it could be "very possible" in the future.](https://gistpicks.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/1898388_1.jpg)
