Queen invites Meghan's mum to spend Christmas with the royal family

Now, with the former actress having no immediate family to share her new life with, her majesty has reportedly made a decision to invite her mom, Doria Ragland (62), to spend Christmas at her private country house in Sandringham, England, Daily Mail reports. It's expected that Doria will receive an invitation to attend church with the royal family at Sandringham, the royal estate in Norfolk, England, where the royal family traditionally celebrates the holiday.

The invitation is believed to be a show of respect and also an acknowledgement that Markle has no other family in Britain.

Doria, 62, the only member of Meghan's family to attend her wedding to Prince Harry at Windsor Castle in May, has reportedly been asked along as a "mark of respect".

The family friend also added that the Duchess of Cornwall was an important mentor to Meghan Markle when she first joined the royal family, welcoming her with open arms and showing her the ropes when it comes to royal protocol. Kate and William have alternated holidays, spending Christmas at Sandringham and at her family's home in Bucklebury.

Doria Ragland got to know the royals, including Prince Charles and Camilla, at Meghan and Harry's wedding in May.

Mr Markle was due to walk his daughter down the aisle but pulled out at the last minute after it emerged he had staged paparazzi pictures in the days prior to it. So although it may not have been so revealing when Meghan got dressed, under the bright light of the sun and with the press' camera flashes, it gave away more than she intended.
