Prince William and Kate Middleton may change Christmas plans amid the new Covid-19 crisis. According to People, strict new coronavirus measures have been put in place for much of England.
There has been a spike in Covid-19 cases in the U.K., and Queen Elizabeth has also canceled the royal family’s annual holiday. The celebration usually takes place at her Sandringham estate.

The cancellation leaves Prince William and Kate Middleton to spend Christmas with Middleton’s family in Bucklebury, Berkshire. However, where her family resides in London, the area has now been placed into Tier 4 lockdown.
The lockdown enforcement bans everyone from coming together. A travel ban has also been introduced, meaning that there will be no entry nor exit from the Tier 4 regions.

However, all is not lost as this gives Prince William and Middleton to spend time with her side of the family. This interference marks the first time that the entire Middleton family would be celebrating Christmas together in recent years.
Prince William and Middleton have spent the past few holidays with the royal family. The Duke of Cambridge opened up about his family’s frustrations on how they will spend the holidays amid the pandemic.
According to the Daily Mail, the royal couple admitted that they do not know what to do for Christmas because it is quite challenging to make plans under the circumstances. Their confusion comes after the Queen canceled the family gathering.
Both 38 years old, they told students in Cardiff that they did not know who to spend the festive season with. The Queen reportedly wants all her children and grandchildren to relish Christmas with their other relatives and not feel torn.
Although they will not be spending this holiday season with the royal matriarch, Prince William and Middleton still followed the royal tradition. They shared their Christmas card with their children. Their kids stole their captured moment in time as they looked jolly in the family photo.
Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis seized the moment on the Cambridge family's 2020 holiday card. As the family posed, showing big smiles for the camera, little Louis shared an extra-wide grin as he sat front and center.
As the royal grandkids shared their cheerful holiday fever, Prince William and Prince Harry also followed suit and have reportedly exchanged gifts as a sign of a Christmas truce. Prince William and his brother traded presents for their families this year.
