Um đź‘€ okay Charles!
King Charles just gave his first-ever Christmas speech (a major tradition for the monarch over in England) and took time to shoutout his family, as well as pay respects to his late mother Queen Elizabeth. But despite the fact that Prince William and Kate Middleton were mentioned by name when Charles mused, “The Prince and Princess of Wales recently visited Wales, shining a light on practical examples of this community spirit,” Meghan Markle and Prince Harry did not come up.
This seems like a pretty overt snub (though to be fair, other members of the royal family also didn’t make it into Charles’ speech!), and comes amid the Sussexes’ Netflix docuseries and ahead of Harry’s upcoming memoir, Spare.
