Just before Christmas 2020 the Government scrapped plans for an easing of lockdown rules - and Tier Four rules were put in place across the South East of England.
That meant a ban on mixing with anyone not from your household indoors - even on Christmas Day.

The first thing to note is the denial is that lockdown rules weren’t broken, not that she wasn’t there.
Without knowing the living arrangements of the guest we can only assume she was in a support bubble with them and not a “Christmas bubble”. One quirk of the support bubble was that you could change it as often as you liked, although guidance advised to not form another bubble for a period of time (10 or 14 days if I recall) this wasn’t mandatory.
I don’t feel particularly strongly about the story if the alternative was for their guest to spend Christmas Day alone.
