“This lack of direct connection makes Harry’s Christmas pose much more like his father’s,” Judi said.

“Charles and Camilla posed off-season in a rustic garden setting and the way Charles chose to avoid the camera with his eyes created the sense of a glimpsed but un-shared moment between him and the public.

“William, Kate and their children all look as though they’re trying to share Christmas with us while Charles, Harry and Meghan look far keener on their moment of privacy.”

Meghan and Harry’s Christmas card was taken by the former actress’s mother Doria, a social worker and yoga instructor.
