Princess Anne reunites with her eldest son Peter Phillips and his fiancee Harriet for a quiet post-Christmas gathering at St Mary Magdalene Church on the Sandringham estate.
Anne was among the leading royals to reach the church on Sunday morning, joining King Charles and other family members.
The Princess Royal was accompanied by her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, as well as close family, including her daughter Zara Tindall with granddaughters Mia and Lena, who both brought extra smiles to the crowd.
Peter Phillips’ appearance followed the family’s Christmas Day celebrations after he and his fiancee spent the holiday privately with her family.
The couple, who have been engaged since August, continue to keep their celebratory moments relatively low-key.
David Armstrong-Jones, 2nd Earl of Snowdon, and his daughter Lady Margarita Armstrong-Jones were also seen adding even more of the extended Windsor clan to Sunday’s turnout.
Andrew was notably absent as he was recently spotted driving alone near Windsor Castle amid the continuing fallout from his controversial ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
Nevertheless, his daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie appeared at previous Christmas services.
Both appearances showed that the sisters are not “guilty by association” even though their father remains aloof from family events.
After Thursday’s Christmas gathering with extended family, King Charles is expected to enjoy a quieter few days at Sandringham before resuming official engagements in the New Year.
