KATE'S CHRISTMAS PREP

The Princess of Wales is busily preparing for her annual Together at Christmas carol concert at Westminster Abbey - and I can't wait!

- Emily Andrews

It’s become a real mainstay in her (and the rest of the royals’) festive calendar - bringing joy and good cheer to us all.

Kensington Palace invites around 1,600 guests. The guest list usually includes those nominated by charities and lord lieutenants, such as volunteers, emergency responders, and those in grassroots community projects.

It’s an opportunity to celebrate those unsung heroes in our communities who go the extra mile.

Kate also personally invites a number of guests - last year, she included the survivors and families of the horrific Southport stabbing at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class.
