"My mum said, 'I'd love you to come, I haven't had Christmas with you for a long time,'" he shared.
Tom continued, "It has been a hell of a two years for them. The older you get, the more conscious you become of mortality, especially with illnesses and the rest of it."
Her Majesty's son - whom she shares with ex-husband, Andrew Parker Bowles also confirmed that he and Laura will not be a part of Royal Family's Christmas retreat at Norfolk this year.
"I'm not [spending Christmas at Sandringham]," he told Daily Mail.
"Nor is my sister. It'll be every other year, one year on, one year off," he added.
Revealing how Tom will be spending his Christmas this year, Tom added, the food writer added, "It's back to the sofa at my ex-wife's."
