The Queen will be spending Christmas at Windsor Castle and will not be travelling to Sandringham, as is traditional.
Buckingham Palace has confirmed the decision, which Sky News understands is a personal one and taken after careful consideration.
Family members will be visiting Windsor over the festive period and sensible precautions will be taken.
The Queen and her family normally walk from the Sandringham estate to a local church on Christmas morning.
It emerged last week that Her Majesty had decided to cancel a traditional pre-Christmas lunch with other members of the Royal Family amid fears over spiking coronavirus cases and the arrival of the Omicron variant.
The 95-year-old monarch hosts the event each year for her extended family and plans were reportedly fully in place at Windsor.
Last year’s gathering was also scrapped because of the COVID-19 crisis.
