Meghan Markle's Holiday Challenge: Keeping The Queen On Top In Charades

Let me tell you a little something about Queen Elizabeth—she doesn’t just reign over England; she dominates family charades at Christmas. And guess what? She apparently always wins. Always. Now, according to reports, Meghan Markle has been given a gentle reminder to tone down her acting skills so the Queen, at 92, can keep her crown as the family charades champion during this year’s holiday festivities.

Why Meghan Needs to Play It Cool

Here’s the scoop: “The Duchess needs to resist that American urge to win at everything,” said a source close to the royal family in a report from the UK’s The Sun newspaper, as cited by Glamour magazine. The royal family loves their charades game on Christmas night, and while Meghan may have some serious acting chops, she’s been asked to let the Queen shine. After all, Her Majesty is no slouch herself when it comes to drama and performance.

    First things first, don’t expect to unwrap gifts on Christmas Day. According to the royal family’s official website, “On Christmas Eve, The Royal Family lays out their presents on trestle tables and exchanges gifts during teatime.” And if you’re thinking about breaking tradition, think again. Royal expert and Editor-In-Chief of Majesty Magazine, Ingrid Seward, told Grazia that Doria should expect, “A strict timetable, a large number of outfit changes, and a minefield of protocol and tradition.”

    “Doria will arrive on Christmas Eve. Once her luggage is unloaded, there will be a present-giving ceremony after tea. The presents are laid out in the drawing room on trestle tables covered with white linen tablecloths. There’s an order of precedence, but the gifts aren’t extravagant. They’re mainly useful things, such as homemade jams, china, or curios bought from country fairs. Then it’s time for some lethal martinis and a black-tie dinner,” Seward added.
