Her family was desperate to spend Christmas with the Duchess, but they couldn't get hold of her at Kensington Palace.

He hasn't seen the Duchess since before her wedding. He couldn't walk her down the aisle as he underwent surgery a week before the wedding.
He spoke to Meghan over the phone a few times after the wedding, but she broke communication with him when he discussed Prince Harry with the media.

The family has also been torn apart by Meghan's half-sister Samantha Markle, who keeps bad-mouthing Meghan in the media.
Apart from discussing Harry's political views in controversial interviews, he also sold staged photos to the media despite Harry's warning about the paparazzi.
So Meghan Markle's brother, Thomas Markle Jr, has echoed his sister Samantha's comments and insisted their father, Thomas, is deeply hurt by Prince Harry saying the royals are the family Meghan never had.

Following all that, Thomas Markle Jr told Daily Mail TV that his wedding would bring everybody closer together. He added:
"It's hopeful that if Meghan and Harry came and my father – Meghan and Harry could spend some time together with him and that would be good."
The couple plans to hold the wedding in either Reno or Las Vegas and said his father would really enjoy seeing Meghan again.
