Meghan Markle will not be able to open gifts on Christmas Day; December 25.

Why? The reason is simple. Prince Harry's wife, who has been resigned from her personal assistant, will not be able to do so as is the custom in the United States, because the tradition of British royalty dictates another rule. The official portal of the English royal family indicates that this is due to the German roots of these monarchs. In other words, German traditions establish that gifts are opened the night before Christmas, explains an article published by the portal in the Cosmopolitan magazine line.

The opening and exchange of gifts occurs the night before the 25th; during Christmas Eve. Yes, it is one day early, because Harry's family opens them on December 24. Cosmopolitan quotes chef Darren McGrady who confirmed that after the traditional afternoon tea, the royal family opens all of their gifts.

And what do they do on Christmas morning? While American tradition says that when children -and adults- wake up, they run to look under the tree for the presents that Santa Claus or Father Christmas brought, in England the members of the Royal House attend a religious service with Queen Elizabeth II. The royal family portal quoted by Cosmopolitan reports that this year, both Meghan - who is expecting her first child with Prince Harry and who will be accompanied by her mother Doria Ragland, special guest of the queen - and other members of the family will attend St Mary Magdalene's Church in Sandringham.
