Play all audios:
Kate, Duchess of Cambridge is hoping her children Prince George, six, Princess Charlotte, four, and Prince Louis, one, will get to spend more time with their cousin this year, a royal source
has claimed. The 37-year-old Duchess is reportedly looking to spend more time with young Archie Harrison and his parents Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. The source told US Weekly Kate is
“hoping that in the new year, the cousins will spend more time together.” The insider also claimed Kate and her husband Prince William’s children “adore” seven-month-old Archie, but “like
most children, they’re easily distracted and resilient.” The wish to spend more time with the family comes as the Sussexes decided to skip Christmas with the Royal Family this year. While
Kate, William and the Cambridge children enjoyed quality time with the Queen at Sandringham, the Sussex family celebrated Christmas in Canada with Meghan’s mother Doria Ragland. Meghan,
Harry and Archie are on a six-week break from royal duties and have not undertaken any engagements since November. A spokesperson for the couple said: “Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and
Duchess of Sussex are spending private family time in Canada. “The decision to base themselves in Canada reflects the importance of this Commonwealth country to them both. “The Duke of
Sussex has been a frequent visitor to Canada over many years, and it was also home to The Duchess for seven years before she became a member of the Royal Family.” READ MORE: THE TWO DETAILS
YOU MISSED FROM ARCHIE AND HARRY’S NEW YEAR PHOTO “But look, we are brothers, we will always be brothers. “We are certainly on different paths at the moment but I will always be there for
him and, as I know, he will always be there for me. “We don't see each other as much as we used to because we are so busy but I love him dearly and the majority of stuff is created out
of nothing. “As brothers, you have good days, you have bad days.” A source also told US Weekly at the time the rift was “one of the main reasons behind their decision” to spend Christmas
separate. The insider claimed: “As it’s Archie’s first Christmas, they want it to be super special. “The drama surrounding the couple has caused a huge amount of stress. “They’re making
their family their No. 1 priority right now.”
