Buckingham Palace reveals how the King plans to spend first Christmas without Queen

The King will reportedly spend Christmas Day at Sandringham this year following the death of the late Queen earlier his year, according to Buckingham Palace.

King Charles will travel to the private Norfolk estate, the same place where his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, traditionally hosted her family over the festive season. During the Covid pandemic, she spent Christmas at Windsor Castle two years in a row - the first with the Duke of Edinburgh, separated from her family.

It comes after it was announced that the King will be gifting Christmas trees across the country to keep with the kindhearted spirit of the season. Throughout his mother's reign, Queen Elizabeth would gift Christmas trees from her Windsor Crown Estate - a tradition that was started by her father King George VI.
