The Queen Reportedly Invited Meghan Markle's Mother To Spend Christmas With The Royals


Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, will have a very merry Christmas, thanks to the Queen: According to The Daily Mail, Queen Elizabeth II has personally invited Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, to join the royal family for their traditional holiday celebrations in Sandringham.

According to a source, the invitation is a “mark of [the Queen’s] respect” for Meghan, who is expecting her first child with husband Prince Harry sometime in the spring. Furthermore, she likely extended the invite to Doria as Meghan has no other family in the country. (The palace declined to comment to The Daily Mail about the invitation.)

Though it might seem normal to invite in-laws over for the holidays, The Daily Mail explained, the invitation for Doria would indeed be a break with royal protocol as non-royals typically don’t spend the night at the family’s Norfolk estate. Though Kate’s parents have attended Christmas mass with the royal family before, they have never stayed at Sandringham. Instead, they typically stay at the nearby Anmer Hall.

But really, it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that the royal family would invite Doria over for the holidays. After all, the Windsors seemed to welcome her with open arms for Meghan and Harry’s wedding in May.

As for what the group will get up to during the holiday season, People explained, the royals are really just like us. Each year, the family kicks things off with a gift exchange. But it’s not just any exchange: Instead, the family gives the silliest, most over-the-top and inappropriate gifts possible (Kate reportedly gave Harry a plastic Grow Your Own Girlfriend kit a few Christmases ago). Next, the family heads outside for a quick game of soccer, followed by a hearty dinner, which consists of “something festive, some game, like pheasant or venison, and roasted wintery vegetables, like parsnips,” according to chef Darren McGrady, who worked for the Windsors for more than a decade.

Sure, they’ll be doing this all in a centuries-old estate, surrounded by staff and security, but hey, stars are just like us, right?

Justin Bieber Reportedly Isn't Invited to Spend Christmas With Selena Gomez's Family


Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are hanging out again—and they’re very, very happy about it. Like, obscenely happy. Take one look at this photo of them riding bicycles like two giddy chipmunks, and you’ll see it. Gomez is so jazzed about Bieber these days that she has no qualms about wearing his gross, sweaty hockey jerseys in public. Or kissing him as he’s drenched in sweat. She just straight-up doesn’t care about his perspiration, apparently, which is wild. It’s like her infatuation’s made her forget the importance of good men’s deodorant.

But her family is a different story. They’re not enticed by Bieber’s rusty, athletic man sweat—quite the opposite, actually. According to this report from People magazine, Gomez’s family is not on board with her reunion with Bieber. “Justin’s family always loved Selena, but Selena’s family is still not happy about her seeing Justin,” a source told People. Maybe they would be if he just washed his clothes!

Kidding. If this report’s true, we’re sure the family’s issue with Bieber runs deeper than that. Like, they’re probably also not thrilled with the fact his third album is called Believe, which is clearly a Cher rip-off.

Regardless of their reasons, People also reports Bieber is not invited to spend the holidays with Gomez’s family as of now. Damn. This probably throws a wrench in Bieber’s plan to perform all the songs from his Christmas record Under the Mistletoe acoustically for Gomez on Christmas Eve. Again, kidding; there’s no way Bieber was planning that, but can you imagine? I’d pay big money to watch him sing “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town” while wearing a tacky sweater— a clean tacky sweater.

There is a silver lining to this story, though: Now Bieber has the holiday free to watch A Christmas Prince as many times as he wants. There’s honestly no better way to spend December 25 than that.

Melania Trump Wants to Spend Christmas on a 'Deserted Island' and Twitter Is Cracking Up


For each of the president’s assertions that Melania Trump is, in fact, perfectly happy to be living in the White House and serving as First Lady, there’s a curious interview answer or “accidentally” favorited tweet from the FLOTUS herself that seem to prove otherwise. Most recently, while visiting the Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, Melania answered holiday-themed questions from kids, and one of her answers, in particular, has revived the #FreeMelania movement, leaving many worried about Melania’s happiness. And, of course, it set up plenty of jokes on Twitter.

In a video captured by NBC News, 10-year-old Andy asks Trump where in the world she would most like to spend the holidays. “I would spend my holidays on a deserted island, a tropical island, with my family,” she replies with a laugh.

Twitter users immediately pounced on the video. Some poked fun at Trump’s seemingly only adding the part about her family as an afterthought. “‘Mrs. trump what do you want for chris the MOST’ ‘a coma….…. with uh, my family,'” one person wrote. Others perceived the answer as proof that Trump is extremely unsatisfied with her current situation. “This isn’t an answer. This is her escape plan,” one such Twitter user wrote. Most Twitter jokers, however, quipped that they, too, would very much like for the Trump family to retreat to a faraway deserted island. “Melania Trump wants to spend the holidays on a deserted island. Can she take her husband with her? And leave him there forever?” one tweeted.

Trump first seemingly revealed that she was less than pleased with being the FLOTUS to Donald Trump‘s POTUS earlier this year, when the official @MelaniaTrump Twitter account liked a tweet—her second-ever like—that read “Seems the only #Wall @realDonaldTrump’s built is the one between him and @FLOTUS #Melania #Trump” alongside a GIF of Trump frowning as soon as her husband looked away. The tweet has since been unliked, and a day later, Melania’s communications director Stephanie Grisham told People that the First Lady was not aware of the fave.

Last month, the president attempted to put the rumors of his wife’s unhappiness to rest. “Melania, our great and very hard working First Lady, who truly loves what she is doing, always thought that ‘if you run, you will win.’ She would tell everyone that, ‘no doubt, he will win.’ I also felt I would win (or I would not have run) – and Country is doing great!” Donald Trump tweeted on November 28, likely in response to a Vanity Fair article published earlier that week claiming that Melania “didn’t want this come hell or high water.”

The truth, it seems, is in the tweets—but whose tweets, exactly?

Meghan Markle Is Reportedly Planning to Spend More Time in the U.K.


Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s relationship is one of the year’s biggest stories. Everyday it seems like a new, “source”-filled article comes out about the state of their union, and people gobble them up. Of course, it’s important to take these reports with a grain of salt. Save for Markle’s interview with Vanity Fair, the couple rarely speaks publicly about their relationship—so who the hell knows what’s real and what’s not?

That being said, it’s perfectly harmless to obsess over them in a TV-show-fan-theory kind of way: indulging in the stories about them playfully, knowing that it could all just be rubbish—and also knowing that Markle and Prince Harry never have to comment on their relationship if they don’t want to. We’re not entitled to any information about them.

So, with that, here’s the new “fan theory” currently setting the Internet ablaze: Markle is allegedly moving in with Prince Harry. Ring the alarm! Alert the queen! Stop everything!

The evidence for this comes from a Daily Mail story—so, again, believe at your own risk—which claims Markle has ended her Audi North America car lease because she plans to “spend more time in the U.K.” The Daily Mail didn’t explain why Markle’s reportedly planning to be in the U.K. more, but it connected the dots…and so are we.

But there might be another, less-exciting reason why Markle ended her car lease. A source told Daily Mail that Markle’s car is now too recognizable by the paparazzi, and some scary run-ins prompted her to cancel the contract as well.

It’s also possible that, ya know, she’s just over her car and wants a new one. Not everything has to be about Prince Harry, people. Don’t start planning Royal Wedding Number Two until there are more concrete receipts.
