- History from across the centuries, Royalty from the 21st -

Members of the Royal Family turned out for the annual Easter matins service at Windsor Castle today.

The Prince and Princess of Wales led the group from the private apartments in the ward, down to St George’s Chapel in the lower ward, with their three children, George, Charlotte, Louis.

The men were in navy suits and black brogues, while the ladies were in creams and browns.

Catherine noticeably wore her cross necklace for the Christian festival, which has been in her collection for at least a decade.

Charles and Camilla were driven the short distance down to the chapel, with The Queen in vibrant red and her raspberry pip brooch, while the King opted for a navy pinstripe suit.

Princess Anne and Sir Tim walked alongside The Duke of Edinburgh, and his son, James – now The Earl of Wessex – as well as Lady Sarah and Daniel Chatto.

Peter Phillips and his fiancee Harriet, attended the service, plus daughters Isla and Savannah.

The King and Queen greeted some of the crowds after the service, waving to messages of ‘happy easter’.

Noticeably absent were Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, who reports suggest were not invited to this year’s service – likely because of the scandal caused by their father with his arrest in February, and wanting to minimise association with the former Duke.

Easter is the first large family occasion since the arrest.
