Prince Harry is "upset" that his children are missing out on a royal tradition he used to enjoy taking part in before stepping back from his royal duties.
Prince Harry discusses future plans to visit royal family
Prince Harry will have been "upset" his two children, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2, are missing out on a royal reunion with three of their cousins, according to a royal expert.
The Duke of Sussex and his wife, Meghan Markle and their two young children don't participate in many public holiday traditions since stepping back from their senior royal duties and moving to America.
The couple stepped back from their Royal Family roles in 2020 and have been living in Montecito, California. They've been raising Archie and Lilibet in the upscale beach town, which is full of celebrities and is far removed from royal life.
Since leaving the UK, they haven't participated in many public holiday traditions like Christmas and Easter.
Tom Quinn, a royal expert and author, shared his thoughts on how Harry might have felt about not being part of the Easter celebrations again this year.

He told The Mirror: "The Royal Family traditionally meet on Easter Sunday at Windsor for a service in St George's Chapel, followed by a brief walkabout and then a very traditional lunch of roast lamb.
"Harry always enjoyed this tradition because he got to meet an adoring public for a short period.
"But what's really going to upset Harry this year is that his children will miss out on the Easter egg hunt that takes place afterwards."
Mr Quinn added that this is a tradition that dates back to Queen Victoria, urging: "And of course, it would've given Archie and Lillibet a chance to get to know George Charlotte and Louis. The family rift is going to prevent this and Harry will feel it keenly."

Prince William and Princess Kate were noticeably absent from the event - as were their three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
The couple's absence comes just days after the Princess of Wales revealed the shock news of her cancer diagnosis.
