The year’s annual tradition saw the Royal Family join together for their first festive period since the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September.

Due to the Covid pandemic, it was the first time that the traditional gathering had taken place since 2019.

Many members of the Royal Family were in attendance, including the Charles’ youngest brother, Prince Edward and his wife, Sophie, Countess of Wessex.

The lunch usually takes place on the Wednesday before Christmas at Buckingham Palace.

The 19-year-old, and youngest granddaughter of the late monarch, has spent the majority of her life out of the spotlight, thanks to her parents who desired to give her and her younger brother as normal of a childhood as possible.

Notably absent were the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and their two children, three-year-old Archie and one-year-old Lilibet, who remained in the US.

In keeping with tradition, the Royal Family attended the annual church service, in Windsor, on Christmas Day.

The Prince and Princess of Wales were joined by their three children. The walk marked four-year-old Prince Louis’s Christmas Day public debut.
