Prince William is expected to bring a more relaxed tone to future royal Christmas, with insiders saying he plans to drop some of Sandringham’s stricter traditions once he becomes King.
One of the customs likely to disappear is the long-running practice of handing out small “joke” gifts in order of royal seniority, a formality William has never been particularly fond of, according to those close to the family.
Influenced by the more informal style of the Middleton household, the Prince is understood to favour a simpler, less hierarchical celebration, a shift that may also affect other rigid festive routines such as the black-tie Christmas Eve dinner and its carefully ranked seating plan.
