    Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry are hosting "dear friends" for the Thanksgiving holiday

    The 44-year-old royal explained that she was "grateful" to be spending the holiday with her husband, their two children Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four, and friends at their home in Montecito, California in the latest edition of her As Ever newsletter on Thursday


    Meghan wrote to her customers: "I am so thankful for your support and warmth as we've grown As Ever throughout the year, and the way in which you've invited this collection to be a part of your home.

    "Please know that as I look around my home and see my husband and children, family, dear friends (and also navigate the timing on the turkey and the love and the layers that come with hostessing) - I feel grateful.

    "Wishing you a Thanksgiving with full hearts and full bellies."

    Meghan - who relocated to California with Harry after the pair stepped down as working royals in 2020 - also reflected on a busy few months following the launch of her lifestyle and cooking brand As Ever earlier this year.

    She wrote: "Being able to play a small role in your memories, family moments, special celebrations, and daily routines is not lost on me - from the jam you layer onto morning toast or slather onto PB+J for your kids' lunchboxes; the honey you stir into your tea; the candle you light to welcome the day or to close it out with a cozy bath; the bottle of bubbles you pop to celebrate, or the wine you sip as you toast your loved ones - you've invited us in.

    "Thank you for supporting As Ever. It really does mean the world to me."

    Meghan also revealed that she would be getting her children to help with the preparation for the Thanksgiving dinner as she gave her tips for hosting the perfect holiday celebration.

    The Suits star told People magazine: "Chop your veggies and herbs in advance to save time on the day, and also for those finishing touches, whether you're serving homemade or store-bought dishes.

    "Your kids can join in too! They can proudly say they helped.

    "Top tip on the carrots - keep the tops and blend them with parmesan, olive oil and pine nuts for a refreshing take on pesto to elevate your holiday spread. Served with creamy mashed potatoes, a green salad speckled with flower sprinkles and rich gravy (my husband would never forgive me if I didn't add that to the table), this is sure to please your entire gathering."
