Britain's Prince William is set to leave Sandringham after spending Christmas with Queen Elizabeth II and other members of the royal family and will usher in the new year with his in-laws.
He will be joined by his wife Kate, and his wife Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, at the house of the Middleton's in Bucklebury.
"William likes being at Sandringham, but he also loves the informality of staying with Kate's parents and just chilling out in a normal family environment," a friend of William was quoted by the Sunday Express as saying.
William, 31, was joined by his younger brother Harry, recently back from an expedition to the South Pole, at the sprawling Sandringham royal estate in Norfolk, England.
Though Kate joined the party there, her son, 5-month-old prince George, was nowhere to be seen.
