Prince William, Kate Middleton and kids join royal family for Easter service
Prince William and Kate, the Princess of Wales, attended Easter service on Sunday alongside other members of Britain's royal family.
The couple attended the service at St. George's Chapel with their three kids, Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7.
King Charles III and his wife Queen Camilla were also among the royal family members attending the traditional Easter Sunday service.
Sunday was the Wales family's first time joining the royals for the Easter service since 2023.
The family was absent from the past two Easter Sundays at St. George's Chapel amid Kate's cancer diagnosis and treatment.
The 44-year-old princess announced in March 2024 that she had been diagnosed with cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy. Kate has not shared further details of her diagnosis but announced last year that her cancer is in remission.
While William and Kate and their children attended this year's service, other royal family members were missing, including the king's younger brother Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and his two children, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.
Mountbatten-Windsor and his daughters attended last year's service, but were not spotted with the royals on Sunday. The Easter service comes less than two months after Mountbatten-Windsor's arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
A royal source told ABC News that it was Eugenie and Beatrice's decision to skip Sunday's Easter service, not the king's. The source said their decision does not mean they will not attend future royal family engagements.
Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested and released without charge on Feb. 19 after the documents were released by the U.S. Justice Department, which show communications between Mountbatten-Windsor and the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Mountbatten-Windsor has denied wrongdoing with respect to Epstein. He has not spoken publicly since his arrest.
Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, was stripped of his royal titles and honors by Charles last year, after stepping back from royal public duties in 2019 due to what he described at the time as his "former association with Jeffrey Epstein."
In February, he was moved out of his from his longtime home, Royal Lodge, on the grounds of Windsor Castle. Mountbatten-Windsor now lives on the king's privately owned Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, England, over 100 miles away from his previous home.
