Kyiv • UNN
The royal family attended a traditional Christmas service in Sandringham, but without Prince Andrew. Princess Kate, who is battling cancer, impressed the audience with her look in an elegant green coat.
The royal family gathered for a traditional Christmas service in Sandringham, attracting the attention of numerous fans. Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, along with their parents, the Prince and Princess of Wales, were accompanied by other family members, including King Charles and Queen Camilla. However, the absence of the Duke of York, Prince Andrew, who remained in Windsor this year after another scandal, was noticeable, UNN reports.
Among the attendees were King Charles, Queen Camilla, Princess Anne, Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.
George, who will start high school next year, wore a navy blue coat and pants, just like his father, Prince William. Charlotte wore a dark green coat reminiscent of Kate's.
Princess Kate, 42, who looked stunning alongside Prince William and their children, wore an elegant forest green coat by Alexander McQueen. Her presence at the service was admired, as this year has been a challenge for her after being diagnosed with cancer in March 2024.
The princess underwent a complicated surgery and began treatment, but today she was radiant, showing no signs of the ordeal. Her hair was done in a classic style, and her makeup remained simple and elegant.
Princess Kate impressed with her courage and positive attitude, demonstrating that even in the most difficult times she remains resilient. Her smile evoked sincere emotions from well-wishers who had been waiting since early morning to see the royal family.
Princess Beatrice also arrived in Sandringham, but without her father, Prince Andrew.
As it became known earlier, the Duke of York, who has usually attended the Christmas service with the royal family for the past two years, was absent this year.
