King Charles Has Made Some Major Changes to the Royal Family's Christmas Plan

The royal family will assemble for their yearly Christmas celebrations at Sandringham in just a few weeks.

While the royals always spend Christmas in Sandringham

[{"selector":"#anim-d4007bbe-5cfb-45e5-8a1c-be44a0fc6242","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4efaa662-86b4-447b-b353-390429fcae3a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(142.01680%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Apparently this year will be slightly different.

[{"selector":"#anim-f1a0d8d7-3766-494a-8073-205fedb12fa4","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(119.44446%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.2, 0, .8, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4ab98e18-8103-4f62-a415-3cd33f4e2073","keyframes":{"transform":["rotateZ(180deg)","rotateZ(0deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.2, 0, .5, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

King Charles is not only hosting for the first time, but he is also making some significant adjustments.

[{"selector":"#anim-c53433ef-fae2-4801-bd03-89adabe29746","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6eba5619-835f-4811-a3ab-b41382be8eb6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 181.85524%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

King Charles will be "less formal" and "less buttoned up" than previous years.

[{"selector":"#anim-b9cf787b-8d98-49b9-838f-2fcc54b7741c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a1c4c645-763d-41a8-ab55-77018caee15d","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(117.08186%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The royals have traditionally been required to observe strict decorum over the holidays.

[{"selector":"#anim-9d9c00f2-c4b9-4b57-b9a2-4f8be9973f4a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6ded1b56-61b5-44d2-b20d-deffa7ba33bc","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 175.43325%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Charles, however, seems to prefer a more relaxed atmosphere in 2022 and has even decided not to make everyone sit around and watch his speech.

[{"selector":"#anim-b561e1a3-8176-4832-a628-b2b8ef7fe1f8","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-56f3d288-3616-4bea-abf8-0184e3c93779","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Charles wants his family to spend the day commemorating the Queen and will instead pre-record the nation's yearly speech.

[{"selector":"#anim-588f2fe0-13fe-477f-b497-7d09f1a70beb","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]
