Prince William and Princess Kate’s ‘fish finger’ bed sleeping arrangements at Sandringham….Read More
The Prince and Princess of Wales bunked up alongside their fellow senior royals over Christmas
Christmas is a tricky time when you have a big family – and it seems the royals are not immune to struggling with sleeping arrangements.
The Prince and Princess of Wales were reportedly forced to sleep on “fish finger” style beds when they travelled up to Norfolk to stay with King Charles at Sandringham, according to a report by Mail+’s Palace Confidential.
Not only did they allegedly have to contend with tiny singles, but they are “old fashioned beds with the really creaky bedsprings at the bottom”. Not very conducive to a Silent Night!
The Daily Mail’s Royal Editor, Rebecca English, added: “Sandringham can fit about 16 to 18 people to have a sleepover comfortably.”
However, Prince William recently revealed that he was looking forward to spending Christmas with “45 family members” so it seems it will have been a tight squeeze.
In fact, it’s thought the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh could have been ostracised to the “staff quarters” like in previous years in a bid to fit everyone in.
