As a routine, the Royal family was present in the English estate of Sandringham in Norfolk for the usual hunting, but Kate chose not to be part of the expidition, thus attracting the favor of the League Against Cruel Sports.

The hunt for the day after Christmas was, as usual, organized by the Queen's husband Prince Philip, before being admitted to hospital for heart surgery during the holiday season.
