After a challenging 2024, the royals unite for their annual Christmas Day walk
After a challenging 2024, members of the British royal family have united at the Sandringham Estate for their annual Christmas festivities.
On Christmas morning, King Charles led the group – including Queen Camilla, the Prince and Princess of Wales and Princess Anne – as they arrived for the morning service at St Mary Magdalene Church, located on the King's Norfolk estate.
The family's walk to church is a beloved ritual, with plenty of members of the public showing up to catch a glimpse of the royals.

Fans were eager to see the Princess of Wales, who has spent much of 2024 out of the public eye while undergoing cancer treatment.
The walk to church on Christmas Day 2023 was, in fact, the last time she was seen publicly for several months, though the public didn't know it at the time.
For the 2024 celebrations, Kate rugged up in a green coat with a matching hat, topped off with a tartan scarf, an addition that thematically tied into her three children's outfits.
She also wore a pair of striking earrings, which you can see here.
Catherine was joined by Prince William and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
They look so grown up!
The entire family coordinated in shades of navy and green.
Princess Charlotte wore a tartan coat.
For years, royal fans have said William and Kate's daughter is the spitting image of her late great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth – and in this photo, with Charlotte's firm gaze, the resemblance is incredible.
Prince George also had tartan in his outfit – his tie.
Prince Louis also had a tartan tie.
As they say, the family that colour-coordinates together...
Prince William went for a blue tie, and his beard is still going strong.
The princess was welcomed warmly by fans waiting outside the church.
