Prince Harry once binned the Christmas present wife Meghan Markle bought him

Prince Harry remembers his wife, Meghan Markle, buying him a Christmas tree ornament adorned with an image of his late grandmother, the Queen – only for his son, Achie, to get his hands on it.

Prince Harry, Meghan Markle's past actions come back to haunt them

Prince Harry may be feeling the pressure to buy his wife Meghan Markle a memorable Christmas present. The Duke of Sussex previously shared that his other half is a great gift giver and really pulled it out the bag four years ago – even though he ended up binning it.

It was the couple’s first Christmas together since quitting their senior roles in the royal family and leaving the UK for the States. At this point, the pair were proud parents to one-year-old Archie; daughter Lilibet would be born the following year.

In his memoir Spare, Harry revealed that Meghan bought him something that would remind him of home. Taking a trip down memory lane, Harry wrote that she spotted a Christmas tree ornament with a picture of the Queen on it in a local shop and “thought he would like it.”

And Meghan was right – Harry said that he “roared” when he opened it and put it straight on the tree at son Archie’s eye-level. That wasn’t the prince’s smartest move, because the tot managed to get his mitts on the trinket and smashed it. He recalled: “I grabbed a dustpan and swept the pieces, all the while thinking: This is weird!”

Meghan Markle Wanted To Be The 'Top Dog' In The Royal Family

Harry also once said that his late grandmother, Her Majesty, the Queen, was very thoughtful with the gift-gifting department. He explained: “My grandmother asked us what Archie wanted for Christmas, and Meg said a waffle maker. So, she sent us a waffle maker for Archie,” he told James Corden during an appearance on his pal’s talk show.

“Meg makes up a beautiful organic mix in the waffle maker, flip it, out it comes – [Archie] loves it, and now I have waffles for breakfast, bit of yoghurt, bit of jam on top.”

Harry and Meghan are currently based in Santa Barbara, California, with children Archie and Lilibet. This time last year, it was reported that an invitation to spend the festive season with the royal family had been rescinded. It would have been the first time Harry and Meghan had celebrated the holidays with them since 2018.
