Meghan Markle: How will Archie spend his first Christmas? Why he will not see the Queen

In the past, Kate Middleton and Prince William, both 37, have also chosen to give their children a modest family Christmas.

They have previously taken a step back from the limelight to spend the day with Kate’s parents, who live in Berkshire.

Even when Kate and William visit the Queen, it is believed the royal children still spend the night at their own residence of Anmer Hall, which is nearby.

Although Archie will not see the royals on Christmas day, it is likely he will have a festive catch-up with them beforehand.
