may be jetting to the UK to spend Christmas with the Royal Family for the first time in five years. But not so fast — one expert says reports of a royal reunion are overblown. “Sadly, reconciliation is not an option for the Windsors and Harry any time soon,” royal biographer Emily Andrews declared in an interview with Woman Magazine, picked up by The Mirror.

“slimmed-down” monarchy seems to be in a crisis ever since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made their grand exit from the royal family in 2020.According to expert Gareth Russell, the couple’s departure has made it “very difficult” for them to come back into the royal family fold and take on engagements on behalf of Charles, 75.“Buckingham Palace could not have been any more clear than the initial announcement in 2020 of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex leaving, that the royal household would be quite willing or quite eager to have [them] back at some time in the future,” the commentator told GB News recently.When the Invictus Games founder, 39, and the former actress, 42, opted to leave the Firm at the time, they released a statement saying: “We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen.”“The Palace” author added that in 2020, Charles still “hoped” that “one day” Harry and Markle “would want to come back to work again.”He continued: “Unfortunately what has happened in the two or three years since that announcement has made it very difficult.”“In 2023, the monarchy was never intended to be functioning without the Duke of Sussex,” Russell said. “The King had always, I think, intended to have both of his sons and their spouses whoever they may be senior working royals.”When the former Prince of Wales ascended to the British throne in September 2022 upon the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth, he noted a desire to shrink the family to having just seven key senior members taking on major royal responsibilities.

royal etiquette and years of training to good use when she dropped into a curtsy worthy of the record books on Tuesday.Wearing a stunning red hat by Jane Taylor and a matching wool cape by Catherine Walker & Co., the Princess of Wales accompanied her husband, Prince William, both 41, to greet the South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, 62, and his wife, First Lady Kim Keon Hee, 51, for their formal state visit to the United Kingdom.After introductions were made, the couples arrived at the Horse Guards Parade in London to meet King Charles, 75, and Queen Camilla, 76, for the ceremonial welcome.As Princess Kate walked up the stairs behind Prince William, who bowed his head to acknowledge his father and Camilla, she stopped at the top and dropped into the perfect curtsy to the King and Queen, mere inches away from certain disaster.

Meghan Markle and the Royal Family may never see eye-to-eye. However, the Duchess of Sussex seemingly isn’t bothered by the rift between her and the royals. Instead, she’s reportedly ready to move past the drama entirely.In Royal report Omid Scobie’s new book, “Endgame,” sources tell the author that Meghan Markle is completely over the Royal Family drama.

Now Omid has tole People Magazine, that the Prince of Wales sees Harry as a "defector, and that some within the Royal institution view him as a "threat to the Crown."

As the countdown to Christmas begins, the Royal Family will surely be excited to be heading to the Sandringham estate in Norfolk. And while we can expect the whole clan to gather together, it is not expected that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will join the family. While this is the case, a source has told OK! that an invitation was extended to the couple but that Prince Harry and Meghan are said to be divided over locations – causing a potential Christmas crisis for the couple.

Let’s be very clear, most senior members of the British monarchy are more than relieved by the news that the two former royals known as Harry and Meghan are simply not going to be returning for the birthday celebrations of his Majesty, The King. The simple fact is, this news was a problem, but more importantly, who needs victims at a family celebration?
