Prince William & Kate's Christmas Service at Sandringham


Having opted to skip a planned ski trip to stay home over the holidays, Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, joined fellow British Royals for an early Christmas Day church service in King's Lynn, England on Sunday (December 25).

The couple was joined by Prince Harry, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, Prince Charles, Prince of Wales, Prince Andrew, Duke of York and Princess Eugenie, as the well-dressed group walked alongside one another upon exiting Sandringham Church.

While the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh traditionally lead the royals in attending the service, this year took a turn from the norm due to the fact that Prince Philip spent Christmas Eve in Papworth Hospital after having cardiac surgery to fit a stent in his coronary artery.

As for Will and Kate's decision to forego their previously scheduled ski getaway, a source told press, "The palace thinks it would send a bad message to be away during this time."
