Queen Elizabeth II was pleased with Meghan Markle’s sarcastic Christmas gift.

Prior to her wedding, the Duchess of Sussex was asked to attend the festivities at Sandringham, where she was obligated to present Her Majesty with a gift.

“I’m sure it was pretty daunting for Megan to rock up at Sandringham for Christmas with the Queen,” Jennie Bond wrote in a letter to Richard Kay.

What do you give the Queen?” she continued.  What do you give your prospective father-in-law, Charles? It must have been frightfully difficult.”

Then Mr. Kay explained  “this tradition of not giving each other expensive gifts. In fact, the cheaper the gift, the better it is.”

He continued: “Harry once gave his grandmother a pair of rubber gloves for doing the dishes — I mean, really quite bizarre presents. Meghan would have found that as extraordinary as a certain Diana Spencer on her first Christmas buying lavish gifts for her in-laws. She never made that mistake again.”

“Meghan played a blinder on her first Christmas. She got a toy — a singing hamster — for the Queen and apparently she loved it… and so did the corgis.”
