Her Approval
The truth is that Harry actually needed to ask Queen Elizabeth for permission to leave for the States since royal Christmases are scheduled and full of protocols. She agreed to his request. The palace also issued a statement about this matter. It said, “This decision is in line with precedent set previously by other members of the Royal Family and has the support of Her Majesty The Queen.”

Feeling Relieved
Well, one source talked to Closer Weekly and reported that William and Kate felt “relieved.” However, they did not feel this way for the reasons you might have in mind. William was not happy that he would not see Harry at Christmas. No, he was happy that he and Meghan would be able to get out of the public eye for some time.
