The Royal Family has officially begun their Christmas morning traditions, starting with a walk to church.
On Thursday, December 25, the family went out to Sandringham to attend the Christmas service at St Mary Magdalene Church.
King Charles and Queen Camilla led the procession, walking at the front and followed by other senior royals. It was a particularly cold morning for Her Majesty, who kept her hands stuffed in the pockets of her trench coat, removing them only to wave to passers-by gathered to wish the Royal Family a Merry Christmas.
Just behind the King was his sister, Princess Anne, who coordinated with the Queen in an eye-catching bright red ensemble. The Princess Royal was accompanied by her husband, Vice-Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence.
The king’s younger brother, Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh, followed close behind along with his wife, Duchess Sofia. His children, Lady Louis Windsor and James, Earl of Wessex, also attended.
Prince William and Princess Kate walked right behind them with their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
Notably absent were the King’s disgraced brother Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, who were publicly shunned by the family amid their ties to Jeffrey Epstein. However, his daughters were present. Princess Beatrice walked alongside her uncle, Prince Edward, while Princess Eugenie followed with her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.
