Prince Harry and Meghan Markle joined millions of families in celebrating Thanksgiving on Thursday. Prince Harry and Meghan spent the holiday with their children, Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three, at their Montecito, California home.

Sources suggest that Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, who lives nearby, was likely among the guests, with the couple spending the day with close friends they consider family.

Meghan had previously shared with Marie Claire that they make it a point to include friends who might not have family nearby, emphasizing their open-door policy during Thanksgiving.

The Duchess, known for her love of cooking, has been teaching Archie and Lilibet the traditions she grew up with. The family is also looking forward to enjoying the long weekend together, away from distractions.

This year has been a busy one for Harry and Meghan, with trips to Vancouver, Whistler, Nigeria, and Colombia, along with their personal projects. Sources close to Meghan revealed that she is focused on career opportunities and taking time to reassess her upcoming ventures.

As Harry and Meghan prepare to attend separate events next week, Thanksgiving provides a much-needed opportunity for the family to relax and bond. They are excited to create lasting memories with their children during the holiday season.
