Prince William and Kate, the Princess of Wales as well as their three kids, princes George and Louis and Princess Charlotte, spread holiday cheer on Christmas morning.
The Wales family joined King Charles III, Queen Camilla and other members of Britain's royal family Thursday as they walked to St. Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham for Christmas Day service. Following tradition, the royals greeted people who braved the cold to gather along the walk to the church.
Noticeably absent again from the public family gathering was Charles' brother Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, who was stripped of his "prince" title by Charles in October amid continued fallout from his relationship with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Mountbatten-Windsor has denied wrongdoing.
But Andrew's daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, did join the family for church on Thursday, attending with their respective husbands, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi and Jack Brooksbank.
Andrew, Beatrice, Eugenie and Andrew's ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, did not walk with the family last year.
Under the order from Charles, Mountbatten-Windsor was stripped of all of his "style, titles and honours" and was forced to move out of his longtime royal residence on the grounds of Windsor Castle.
Andrew, one of Charles' three siblings, also did not walk to the Christmas Day service with royal family members last year. At that time, Andrew was no longer a working royal but had previously joined the royal family celebrating Christmas at Sandringham since losing his military titles and royal patronages in 2022.
How Britain's royal family celebrates Christmas
Each year at Christmas, members of the royal family gather for a multi-day celebration at Sandringham, the king's estate in Norfolk, England.
After attending church together on Christmas morning, the family enjoys lunch at Sandringham before watching the king deliver his annual televised Christmas message.
In the evening, the family members gather again for a Christmas buffet dinner.
On the day after Christmas, known as Boxing Day in the U.K., the royals traditionally partake in a pheasant shoot on the grounds of Sandringham.
