Queen Elizabeth II is changing her Christmas plans this year, Fox News can confirm. 

The British monarch and her husband, Prince Philip, will be spending the holiday at Windsor Castle, where they have been living amid the coronavirus pandemic.

"Having considered all the appropriate advice, the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh have decided that this year they will spend Christmas quietly in Windsor," a Buckingham Palace spokesperson told Fox News on Tuesday.

The queen usually celebrates Christmas with family at her Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. They traditionally all walk to church together but are not expected to attend church on Christmas Day to avoid large crowds of well-wishers gathering.

ROYAL FAMILY MEMBERS WILL LIKELY BE APART FOR CHRISTMAS

Prince William and Kate Middleton have not revealed their Christmas plans yet with their children: Prince George, 7, Princess Charlotte, 5, and Prince Louis, 2. In years past, they've also visited Kate’s family in Bucklebury.

Her mother, Carole, previously said on social media that she'll video call her grandkids as they won't be able to gather.

“For me, what really matters is that my family feels connected. I normally let my grandchildren help me decorate the tree. This year, I’ll ask them by video call to decide which decoration should go where. It may need to be tastefully rearranged later," she wrote.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be celebrating their first American Christmas together at their new Montecito home outside Los Angeles.
