“Perhaps [Prince] Andrew and Sarah [Ferguson] because Sarah had famously been not invited to spend Christmas there when her daughters and ex-husband was there.”

Meghan and Harry stepped back from their senior royal roles last March.

This special treatment could have possibly annoyed other members of the family.

Meanwhile, the couple will discuss their decision in an upcoming interview with Oprah Winfrey.

In a preview clip released earlier this week, Meghan suggested “The Firm” had “perpetuated falsehoods” about her and Prince Harry.

In addition, she added: “And if that comes with risk of losing things, I mean, I’ve… there’s a lot that’s been lost already.”
