Fond memories, fresh starts (and a good riddance!)

HOPE you enjoyed “Twixmas’ — the calm period between Christmas and New Year’s Eve where you forget what day it is, enjoy food you'd usually politely decline (as calories definitely don’t count over the festive period) and sit down to watch classic films you never usually have time for.

- with Royal Editor EMILY FERGUSON

I was fortunate to have the time off, after spending Christmas Day at Sandringham, and I cherished the time to catch up with friends and family and have some me-time ~ helped by the gift of a spa day from my boyfriend.

But after ushering in the New Year, it’s time to look ahead to what 2026 brings.

There’s much to look forward to for the Royal Family, with trips to the US, Antigua and Barbuda and India on the cards.
