There are many things that we will always love about the late Queen Elizabeth II, and her quirky Christmas tree tradition is one of them.
The Windsors are known for their big family Christmases at Sandringham, with their yearly practises including a walk to church with all the ‘rellies’, joke Christmas present exchanges and of course the annual Christmas dinner weigh-in.
Yes, the royal family guests are weighed before and after their Christmas lunch on antique scales to ensure that they have been fed enough on turkey, shrimp and lobster.
Yet, it’s what’s on the royal Christmas tree, not the menu, that has captured the attention of royal watchers.
A glimpse of the royal family’s tree in 2020 went absolutely viral, offering a look into the more comedic elements of their festive traditions.
Instead of baubles, the royal family decorate their Christmas tree with mini crowns.
And apparently, there are more where they came from, with the royals reportedly having a hilarious collection of regal tree decorations, from crowns and thrones to even…miniature corgis.
This is, quite frankly, the most iconic thing ever.
