Princess Catherine and her daughter Princess Charlotte showcased a tender mother-daughter bond as they exited the Easter Sunday service at Windsor this afternoon, walking hand-in-hand from St George's Chapel. Kate, aged 44, and Charlotte, aged 10, were seen chatting amiably while strolling together after the religious gathering, presenting a picture of familial warmth and connection.
Royal Family's Coordinated Appearance
Prince William, 43, along with their sons Prince George, 12, and Prince Louis, seven, created a striking visual as they walked in ascending height order, all dressed in matching navy suits that drew comparisons to a set of Russian dolls. This coordinated look highlighted the unity and tradition of the royal family during the Easter celebrations.
Fashion Highlights and Family Moments
Kate stunned onlookers in a cream two-piece suit, accessorised with a brown leather handbag and matching heels, exuding elegance and poise. Her ensemble was beautifully complemented by Princess Charlotte's camel-coloured coat, which featured brown velvet accents and was worn over a pretty white dress, paired with delicate black pumps. Earlier, Princess Charlotte shared an adorable moment with King Charles outside the chapel, where the 77-year-old monarch gently touched her shoulder before entering the service.
The King appeared full of good spirits, warmly waving to the crowd and greeting his family despite the chill winds that preceded the Easter gathering. He was followed inside by his wife Queen Camilla, Prince William, Princess Kate, Princes George and Louis, and Princess Charlotte, all proceeding in a dignified procession.
Senior Royals and Notable Absences
Senior royals had earlier been led by the Prince and Princess of Wales and their children on foot from Windsor Castle, braving the blustery conditions on April 5, 2026. The large and notably young party chatted happily as they walked, with Princess Charlotte looking delighted and waving to the crowd as Louis walked proudly beside her. Also in attendance were The Princess Royal and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, along with The Duke of Edinburgh and his son James, Earl of Wessex, aged 18.
Notably absent from the Easter Matins service were Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and his daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. With the King's agreement, they made alternative plans and missed the traditional gathering, though sources indicate they will join the Royal Family at future occasions. In attendance were Peter Phillips and his fiancé, Harriet Sperling, with his daughters Savannah and Isla, and for the first time, Ms Sperling's daughter Georgina, aged 15, marking a sign of the new, blended royal family. At the rear of the group were Lady Sarah Chatto and her husband, Daniel.
Fashion and Festive Atmosphere
Queen Camilla sported a red wool crepe dress by Fiona Clare and a hat by Philip Treacy, adorned with a brooch that once belonged to Queen Elizabeth II, adding a touch of historical significance to the event. The overall atmosphere was one of joy and tradition, with the royal family engaging warmly with each other and the public, despite the windy weather.
