EVERY year the royal family flock to Sandringham for Christmas, and this year there will be a few new names on the guest list.<\/p>\n
Prince William\u2019s \u201csecret\u201d step-sister and step-brother are reportedly being invited by King Charles to celebrate the festive period for the first time.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
Queen Camilla\u2019s children from her first marriage to Andrew Parker Bowles are said to be among the invitees – along with their kids.<\/p>\n
Camilla has two children, Laura Lopes, 45, and Tom Parker Bowles, 48, who became step-siblings of Prince William, 41, and Prince Harry, 39, when she married Charles in 2005.<\/p>\n
ITV\u2019s Royal Editor Chris Ship claims there will be \u201cmajor alterations\u201d to the traditional Sandringham celebrations this year.<\/p>\n
He quoted a source saying, "The Queen has invited her children and grandchildren this year which is different from previous years:"<\/p>\n
Laura co-founded a fine art gallery in Belgravia and is married to chartered accountant Harry Lopes, while Tom is a writer and food critic, who is a regular on MasterChef.<\/p>\n Camilla\u2019s grandkids include Lola, 16, and Freddy, 13, who are Tom\u2019s kids, and Eliza, 15, and twins Gus and Louis, 13, who are Laura\u2019s children.<\/p>\n All three of Camilla\u2019s grandsons were page boys at the Royal Coronation in May, alongside her great-nephew Arthur Elliot.<\/p>\n It has been claimed the Sussexes have\u00a0not received a Christmas invite\u00a0from The King this year,\u00a0The Sunday Times reports.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Prince Harry and Meghan Markle last spent\u00a0Christmas\u00a0with the royal family at\u00a0Sandringham\u00a0in 2018 before their acrimonious move to the US.<\/p>\n But now a friend says that the couple want to see more of\u00a0Charles\u00a0– who has never spent a Christmas with their children\u00a0Archie\u00a0and\u00a0Lilibet.<\/p>\n Insiders allege The King may invite\u00a0Harry\u00a0and Meghan for New Year in Scotland while the Waleses stay at\u00a0Anmer Hall in Norfolk.<\/p>\n Due to the expanded guest list, Chris claims that Christmas lunch will now be served in the ballroom at Sandringham, instead of the dining room.<\/p>\n Other guests staying at the estate are said to be Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, who will reportedly stay at Wood Farm on the estate.<\/p>\n Prince Willam, Kate Middleton and their three kids, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Prince Louis, five, will also be in attendance, but will stay nearby at Anmer Hall.<\/p>\n On Christmas Day, we typically see the royals walking to Mary Magdalene Church for the 11am service.<\/p>\n Often we see extended family members, such as Charles\u2019s niece Zara Tindall and her family.<\/p>\n On his House of Rugby podcast in 2018, Mike Tindall revealed that the royals typically have a buffet lunch after church.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cChristmas Day is a little more quiet because it's actually a cold buffet because they give everyone the day off.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/picture>ROYAL STRAIN <\/span><\/p>\n
