After two years off due to COVID-19, the British royal family returned this year with its traditional Christmas morning service at Sandringham Estate.
Joining the tradition this year were Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, the children of Prince William and Kate, the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Also in attendance were King Charles III, George and Charlotte’s grandfather, and Queen Camilla.
The last time the royal family stepped out for Christmas service at Sandringham was in 2019 with the late Queen Elizabeth II. This year marks the family’s first Christmas without her and the first Christmas for Charles as the sovereign. It’s also the first Christmas for William and Kate since taking on the titles of Prince and Princess of Wales.
While Elizabeth canceled Christmas service last year at Sandringham, Charles and Camilla attended Christmas mass in Windsor.
