Amidst ongoing tensions within the royal family, Prince William and Kate Middleton are reportedly considering a more secluded Christmas away from the traditional Sandringham gathering.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge might opt for an intimate celebration with their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, seeking respite from what has been described as a year filled with strain and discord.
Sources suggest the royal couple plans to engage in charitable activities on Christmas Day, intending to visit a shelter for the unhoused alongside their children, as disclosed by an insider to Us Weekly.
Post-holiday, the family is purportedly planning a vacation within the Commonwealth, aiming for relaxation and beach activities, providing a retreat for the entire family.
Amid uncertainties, it remains unclear whether Prince William and Kate will partake in the traditional Christmas lunch at Sandringham with King Charles and Queen Camilla, given recent reports indicating adjustments to the guest list for the season.
In an unusual turn, the 75-year-old monarch has reportedly extended invitations to spend the holiday at Sandringham to Camilla's children and grandchildren, altering the usual attendees.
Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are expected to have a quieter Christmas in California with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, as they remain distanced from the traditional royal celebrations."
