    • Things between the members of the royal Fab Four are looking up. Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, Prince William and Kate Middleton have reportedly exchanged Christmas gifts.
    • Royal experts say this is a sign of a truce between the famously feuding royals.
    • According to royal biographer Andrew Morton, Meghan even did personal notes in calligraphy to accompany the gifts.

    The Fab Four are mending their relationship. The Cambridges and Sussexes have reportedly exchanged Christmas gifts from a distance as what royal experts are calling a sign of a Christmas "truce."

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sent gifts to Prince William and Kate Middleton—and their kids, Prince George, 7, Princess Charlotte, 5, and Prince Louis, 2, of course—after a shopping trip at an exclusive boutique near their new home in Montecito, California, according to a report from The Sun.

    According to the Daily Mail, Will and Kate reciprocated the gesture, sending gifts to Harry, Meghan, and their 17-month-old son, Archie.

    "Harry has sent presents to William and Kate and the calligraphy has been done by Meghan," royal biographer Andrew Morton, author of Diana: Her True Story, explained, adding that Harry "plans to speak to his father and brother over Christmas."

    And the calligraphy, courtesy of Meghan, wasn't limited to the grownup gifts, apparently. According to the Daily Mail's report, she also wrote personal messages for her and Harry's nieces and nephews, too.
