Meghan Markle Joins Kate Middleton and the Rest of Royal Family for Christmas
Meghan Markle‘s first Christmas with the Royal Family is currently underway, and while we all sit around the tree in our onesies, she’s already packed in a full half a day.
The (younger) royal couples—Kate Middleton and Prince William, Meghan and Prince Harry—all took what looks like a gorgeous walk from Queen Elizabeths’s house to the Church of St. Mary Magdalene on the Queen’s Sandringham, England estate.
Extremely adorable was the fact that Meghan and Kate looked like they were best friends along the way, as they smiled and laughed together on the stroll to church. Meghan and her fiancé looked brilliantly happy together, too.
Prince Charles (William and Harry’s dad), Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, and the cousins Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie were all at church for the service, too. A crowd had been lined up since close to 2:30 A.M. waiting to get a glimpse of the family (in happy Christmas news, two proposals were made—and accepted—during the wait). Prince Harry and Meghan stopped by and chatted to a few of the people in line.

After church, everyone will sit down for a turkey lunch at Queen Liz’s place (birds from the estate, of course), and then watch the Queen’s Christmas address, because families support each other like that. (Gifts were already exchanged yesterday.)
Of course, this isn’t Meghan’s first holiday event with the royals: The festivities actually started almost a week ago. On December 20, she joined the family for a pre-Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace (an event marred by the fact that Princess Michael rocked up wearing a racist brooch).
