Inside Prince William and Kate Middleton's low-key Easter weekend away from royal drama
Prince William and Kate Middleton skipped the traditional Royal Family Easter Sunday service at St George's Chapel
While the rest of the royal family gathered in Windsor, Prince William and Kate Middleton were quietly enjoying Easter with the people who matter most: their children and Kate’s parents.
For the second year in a row, the Prince and Princess of Wales skipped the traditional Royal Family Easter Sunday service at St George's Chapel, opting instead for a low-key family celebration at their country home, Anmer Hall, in Norfolk.
According to Hello! Magazine, the couple celebrated the holiday privately with Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six, alongside Kate's parents, Carole and Michael Middleton.
On Easter Sunday, the family quietly attended a church service at St Mary Magdalene Church in nearby Sandringham, the same historic chapel famously used by the late Queen.
Though no official details were shared, insiders believe the Wales children likely received Easter eggs and may have taken part in an Easter egg hunt around the sprawling grounds of Anmer Hall.
With acres of private land and beautiful countryside views, it's believed the family spent much of their weekend outdoors in nature, enjoying quality time away from the spotlight.
A palace source confirmed that their absence from Windsor had been approved by King Charles, who spent the day hosting other senior royals, including Princess Anne, Prince Edward, Duchess Sophie, and a surprise appearance from Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.
