The royal family is assembling at Sandringham for Christmas, with the Sussexes and the Cambridge family among the guests.
The family time comes during a period of increased attention on the relationship between William and Harry, Kate and Meghan after the announcement the newly-weds would be moving to Windsor, rather than staying at Kensington Palace. That news unleashed a swathe of claims of tensions between the couples and how palace staff find Meghan behind closed doors.
And Thomas Markle's reappearance with a new interview hardly helps the festive spirit of peace and goodwill to all men.
Daily Mirror royal correspondent Russell Myers joins Pod Save The Queen host Ann Gripper to discuss the tensions - and what the royals can look forward to at Christmas and beyond.
Pod Save the Queen will return in January. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
