Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have shared their Christmas message for 2025, continuing a tradition they have kept every year since their wedding in 2018. This time, however, they chose a slightly different format. Instead of a traditional printed card, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex released a short Christmas video that reflects moments from their year, blending family life with their ongoing charitable work.
As with previous releases, the couple kept their children’s privacy firmly in mind. Archie, now six, and four year old Lilibet appear only briefly and from angles that avoid showing their faces clearly. In one touching segment, the family is seen working together during a surprise visit to help prepare meals for the local community in California. The outing was organised through Archewell’s partnership with Our Big Kitchen Los Angeles, with the children helping where they could and pushing trolleys alongside their parents.
The video also includes clips of Harry and Meghan attending various humanitarian engagements over the past year, offering a snapshot of the causes they continue to support behind the scenes.
A quiet but meaningful name change
