Prince Harry's girlfriend Meghan Markle has flown home for Christmas after her romantic break with the royal in London.

The actress, 35, was spotted checking in for her flight at Heathrow along with other members of the public.

It is believed the American star will be spending Christmas with her family in Los Angeles.

There had been speculation that Harry, 32, may have invited Ms Markle to join him and the rest of the royal family for the Boxing Day shoot at Sandringham organised by Prince Philip.

The couple have been dating for several months. Ms Markle flew home yesterday after spending several days with Harry at Nottingham Cottage, his two-bedroom property at Kensington Palace.

They were spotted in Battersea buying a Christmas tree and were photographed together for the first time in the West End last week when they went to see The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time at the Gielgud Theatre.

Harry has also reportedly introduced Ms Markle to his close friend, Mark Dyer.

Harry confirmed his relationship with the actress when he issued a statement through Kensington Palace last month. He has visited her in Toronto, where she lives while filming television drama Suits.

Harry is set to be without his brother and sister-in-law as well as his girlfriend on Christmas Day — the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, will be with Kate’s family the Middletons in Berkshire rather than with the rest of the royals at Sandringham.
