Now that it's November, the Royal Family's preparations for the festive season are in full swing. From Princess Kate's annual carol concert to the Royal Family greeting the public in Sandringham on Christmas Day, there are specific holiday traditions that royal watchers look forward to each year. While it's not uncommon for people to start decorating in early November, former royal butler Grant Harrold shares that King Charles actually starts his Christmas planning as early as August.
Speaking with Heart Bingo, Harrold—who worked as a butler at Highgrove House from 2004 to 2011—said that "as the season changed, everything for the royals sort of changed too."
