Prince William and Princess Kate will not attend King Charles III's pre-Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace.
The Prince and Princess of Wales are already at their Anmer Hall country retreat, in Sandringham, where they will spend the holidays with their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince louis.
They will therefore miss the pre-Christmas lunch held today at Buckingham Palace for a wide cross section of the royal family.
