Royal News Roundup: Prince Harry’s New Look, Meghan Markle’s Social Media Plan & *Three* Birthdays

• The Danish royal family recently shared never-before-seen portraits of the twins, Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine, in honor of their 10th birthday (and they look like miniature versions of their parents, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary). The slideshow begins with a colorful shot of the young royals staring directly at the camera. It’s followed by two black-and-white photos, both featuring candid moments.

• Looks like Kate Middleton and Prince William may not be headed back to Kensington Palace anytime soon. While we heard rumors back in September that the entire Cambridge clan was packing their bags and getting ready to move back home after the holidays, we recently learned that due to the coronavirus pandemic, they will remain at their Norfolk home, Anmer Hall, where they have remained for the majority of 2020.

• This week, we also learned that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their three children (Prince George, 6, Princess Charlotte, 5, and Prince Louis, 2) landed the top nine royal IGs in the last 12 months. The family’s most popular photo raked in a whopping 2.4 million likes, while their 9th most popular one gained an impressive 1.3 million.

• Meghan Markle and Prince Harry apparently have no plans to start a new presence on social media (we’re talking Twitter and Instagram) as part of their new lives in the United States. A source close to the couple recently revealed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have “no plans” to use social media for their new Archewell Foundation and were “very unlikely” to return to platforms in a personal capacity.
• The Duchess of Sussex can no longer apply for a U.K. citizenship, we learned this week. According to the U.K. government website, the duchess would have had to live in the country for a minimum of three years before applying.
