On Tuesday, Prince Harry kicked off the holiday season by making an appearance at a virtual Christmas party for one of his patronages. Wearing a red Santa hat, the Duke of Sussex hopped on a Zoom call for Scotty’s Little Soldiers, a bereavement charity for children who have experienced the death of a parent in the British Armed Forces.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are noticeably absent from Selfridges' Royal bauble collection - which has caused shoppers to launch a brutal joke at the pair.

The tension between the Royal Family and Prince Harry has been laid bare by a royal insider ahead of monarchy members spending time together at Sandringham over the festive period. Up to 45 members of the monarchy and their extended family will spend time together over Christmas.
