Prince William, Princess Kate and their three children have joined other members of the royal family for an Easter Sunday church service for the first time since 2023.
The family missed out on the service in 2024 as it came soon after Kate’s cancer diagnosis.
Last year, they skipped it again to take a family holiday to Norfolk.
King Charles and Queen Camilla were also spotted heading into St George’s Chapel in Windsor for the traditional event.
The King was spotted giving William and Kate’s son Prince Louis a pat on the shoulder as the seven-year-old arrived at the church with his brother George and sister Charlotte.

Unlike last year, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor did not make an appearance for what would have been his first Easter service since being stripped of his titles.
His ex-wife Sarah Ferguson also did not turn up, while his daughter Eugenie and Beatrice had reportedly made ‘alternative plans’ for Easter.
Princess Anne joined with her husband Sir Tim Laurence, while Prince Edward was accompanied by his family.
The Easter Sunday service at St George’s Chapel is seen as a family event rather than an official engagement.
However, the King and Queen shook hands with gathered members of the public and wished them a happy Easter as they left.
There was no official Easter message issued by the King this year.
An accompanying message said: ‘Wishing a joyous Easter Sunday to Christians celebrating in the UK, the Commonwealth and around the world today.’
