Where will the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge spend Christmas?

Will and Kate are expected to be spending Christmas with the royal side of the family this year and not the Middleton's.

They traditionally spend the holiday period with William's grandparents, the Queen and Prince Philip at the royal Norfolk retreat of Sandringham.

However there could be room for change this year as the Cambridge's now have three children who all want to see both sets of grandparents on Christmas day, so it is also possible that they could spend some time over the festive period at the Middleton family home in Berkshire.

Kate's sister Pippa recently welcomed her first child Arthur with husband James Matthews, so the siblings may also want to spend time with their kids bonding over Christmas.

Despite being in-laws to Prince Charles and Camilla, the Middleton's have never been invited to Sandringham for Christmas Day.
