In the festive spirit, the Duchess of Sussex, featured in With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration, joyfully expresses her fondness for the holiday season while adorning her Christmas tree.
Reflecting on the act of decorating her tree, she shares that it allows one to capture their family’s history and feel the passage of time through the various ornaments, symbolizing the different chapters of life.
Over the past decade, the Duchess has undergone significant life changes, including marrying Prince Harry, becoming part of the monarchy, making a dramatic exit, welcoming two children, and now venturing into establishing her business in California.
Her Netflix Christmas special, infused with a distinct California ambiance, showcases traditions typically associated with the United States, such as decorating cookies and enjoying a Christmas brunch in coordinated family pajamas.
In a segment of the holiday-themed program, Meghan fondly recalls her Christmas experiences in the UK as she introduces her friend, Will Guidara, to the British custom of Christmas crackers. Having celebrated Christmas with the Royal Family in 2017 and 2018, she reminisces about the tradition of pulling crackers before the meal, emphasizing the connected and endearing nature of the practice.
Meghan shares insights with Will about the communal aspect of pulling Christmas crackers in the UK, describing the tradition as a significant part of the holiday season. She highlights the shared experience of pulling crackers simultaneously around the table, noting the presence of small jokes or riddles inside, akin to fortune cookies, adding a sweet touch to the festivities.
While Meghan’s discussions about her time in the Royal Family have been widely scrutinized, this instance marks a departure as she reflects positively on her past experiences with a hint of nostalgia for her time in the UK, a place she now rarely visits. This gesture could signal a desire to mend the ongoing tensions between the Sussexes and the Firm by extending an olive branch.
The motivation behind Meghan’s reflections remains a subject of speculation, with some viewing it as a way to emphasize her royal connections, which have undoubtedly contributed to her prominent position on platforms like Netflix. Whether this gesture will pave the way for reconciliation remains uncertain, leaving the possibility open for a resolution to the ongoing rift.
