Two separate celebrations, the pre Christmas includes her cousins too.

The Queen has always had a pre Christmas lunch which includes family members not invited to Sandringham.

I’m not surprised it’s been cancelled.

I thought the RF all went to Balmoral for Christmas together.

Well done the Queen.

Most years, the Queen invites her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren to join her at Buckingham Palace for a festive party.

But a Buckingham Palace source confirmed she had called off the royal gathering, because it could put too many people’s Christmas arrangements at risk.
