Princess Beatrice, who is 36 years old, and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, who is 41 years old, will be arriving in Sandringham to celebrate Christmas with the Royal Family this year. This comes after Princess Beatrice received fresh medical advice on her pregnancy.
According to Mirror, a change of plans at the eleventh hour has resulted in Princess Beatrice becoming a member of the Royal Family and spending Christmas at Sandringham.
Princess Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, are expecting their second child, which is expected to arrive in the early spring. Initially, they intended to spend the holiday season in another country with the princess's in-laws. On the other hand, the 36-year-old woman, who is currently in the third trimester of her pregnancy, has lately received medical advice that instructs her not to travel large distances. As a result, she has decided to attend the massive royal gathering that will take place in Norfolk on December 25.
On Christmas Day this year, King Charles and Queen Camilla will be hosting a huge number of royal guests. Prince William recently disclosed that there will be 45 people "all in one room" at the royal residence. This fact indicates that a large number of royals will be there. On the other hand, Prince Andrew, Princess Beatrice's father, will not be present at the event since he has chosen to abstain from attending in light of the ongoing issue that surrounds his connections to a purported Chinese spy. As an alternative, the prince will celebrate Christmas with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson. According to People, Princess Eugenie, sister of Princess Beatrice, and her family are making preparations to celebrate Christmas with her husband's family.
As of right now, it is anticipated that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would continue to reside in California with their two children and Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland. On the other hand, it is believed that they were not invited to Sandringham, as they had previously celebrated Christmas with the Royal Family in 2018.
Tom Parker Bowles, the stepson of King Charles, is scheduled to make his very first appearance at the gathering this year. He will be one of the fresh faces that will be present at the event. It was revealed in a recent interview with the Telegraph that food critic Tom, who is fifty years old, disclosed that his mother, Queen Camilla, had directly requested his presence at the royal gathering this year.
He shared: "My mum said, 'I'd love you to come, I haven't had Christmas with you for a long time.'"
One of the most knowledgeable authorities on royals has stated that the joyous celebration that will take place this year will center on offering activities for the increasing number of younger royals, as well as demonstrating support for the King and Kate, Princess of Wales, following the health challenges that they have faced this year.
Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond told OK!: "After the year they've had, I'm sure it's going to mean the world to the King and Queen to have as many of their family as possible joining them for Christmas. And, as the number of youngsters increases, so the celebrations become more and more child oriented. Which is exactly what Christmas should be all about."
Business Times has reached out to Buckingham Palace for comments.
