With a new addition to their family and the ongoing pandemic, Easter 2021 will be a unique experience for Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. However, this royal couple is known for their extravagant celebrations, and they are expected to pull out all the stops for this holiday season. From special Easter outfits to decadent feasts and lavish decorations, we take a sneak peek into what Easter looks like in the royal household.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Harry and Meghan, are set to celebrate Easter in their seven-acre Californian mansion with their two children, Archie and Lilibet. The family is expected to enjoy an egg hunt and an Easter feast, as Meghan is known to enjoy cooking. Last year, the Sussexes shared a home video of a previous Easter celebration, where Harry and Meghan crafted an egg hunt trail with Meghan’s mother, Doria, in their garden. The family’s huge play area includes a playground with two slides, a climbing frame, a tightrope, a helter-skelter, and two climbing walls.
Meanwhile, the Royal Family in the UK will be marking a sombre Easter weekend, led by King Charles, which will be their first without the late Queen Elizabeth II. They will also be remembering Prince Philip on the second anniversary of his death. The Royal Family is expected to attend a church service at St George’s Chapel, with Princess Anne, Prince Edward, and the Duchess of Edinburgh in attendance.
However, a new royal book written by Robert Jobson, titled Our King, highlights the deteriorating relationship between Harry and other senior royals. The book reveals a growing rift between Harry and William, with Charles reportedly shocked at the animosity between them. One particular incident that left Harry furious was when he intended to reveal his intention to wed Meghan to his father, but William had already broken the news. Afterwards, Charles informed Harry that he “couldn’t afford to pay for Meghan in the future” alongside Camilla, William, Catherine, and their young family.
The contrasting Easter celebrations of the Sussexes and the Royal Family in the UK depict the ongoing tensions within the Royal Family. Harry and Meghan’s decision to step back from royal duties and move to California has also led to an estrangement from the traditional royal life. However, the couple’s Easter celebration at their Californian mansion reflects their new life, where they have more space and freedom to commemorate the occasion with their two children.
As we come to the end of this article exploring Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s extravagant Easter celebrations, it’s clear that the young royals are living their best lives. From fancy brunches to egg hunts, chocolate treats to family gatherings, the siblings clearly enjoyed every moment of the holiday. It’s a reminder that even in uncertain times, we can find joy and happiness in the little things. Thanks for reading and until next time, happy Easter!
