Harry and Meghan left off guest list for Catherine’s Christmas carol service

Catherine has not invited Prince Harry and Meghan to her Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey in London.

The service, called Together at Christmas, is scheduled for December 11 and is expected to draw more than 1,600 guests.

It is one of Catherine’s signature events, with members of the royal family and people recognised for supporting their communities usually attending.

The Sussexes are also reportedly excluded from the royal family’s Christmas gathering at Sandringham, though they plan to spend the holiday in the Cotswolds.

Harry and Meghan returned to Britain in August after living in California, and a separate account says their children have settled well at their new home.

The reported exclusions come amid strained family relations, particularly between Harry and his brother Prince William.

Harry is reportedly likely to send holiday wishes to his father and other relatives by phone or video, while representatives for the Waleses and Sussexes did not comment on the carol service invitation.
