King Charles and Queen Camilla are leading the royal family for their traditional outing on Christmas Day.

On Dec. 25, the King, 77, and Queen, 78, led members of the royal family as they attended the Morning Service at Church of St. Mary Magdalene on the Sandringham Estate, where they have celebrated Christmas for generations.

Queen Camilla popped in a red coat and hat for the occasion, accessorizing with a scarf and gloves. She was seen shielding her eyes from the sun to see the well-wishers gathered along the path.

The King and Queen were followed by Princess Anne and her husband, Sir Tim Laurence. Also among the attendees at this year's church outing were Kate Middleton and Prince William with their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie were among the group, attending with their husbands while their parents, the former Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, were shut out from the gathering after Andrew's titles were stripped amid renewed interest in his connections to Jeffrey Epstein.

Rounding out the royals in attendance were Prince Edward and Sophie, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, with their children, Lady Louise and James, Earl of Wessex, and Zara and Mike Tindall with their daughters, Mia and Lena.

King Charles and Queen Camilla attend royal Christmas 2025

The King and Queen have led the way for the walk every year of his reign to date, following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth, in September 2022.

The royal family's walk to and from Church of St. Mary Magdalene always draws well-wishers, and the royals sometimes stop to chat. After church, they have a Norfolk turkey lunch and tune in to watch the King's annual TV address that afternoon.

King Charles brought the royal family together just last week for a Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace in London, another holiday tradition he has continued from Queen Elizabeth's reign. The private luncheon is usually held a week before Christmas, before the family travels to Norfolk for Christmas.

Earlier this month, King Charles announced the "good news" that his treatment for cancer will be reduced in the New Year.

The monarch shared the news in a pre-recorded message that aired during Channel 4's Stand Up To Cancer broadcast on Dec. 12, a rare update in his health journey.

"Today I am able to share with you the good news that thanks to early diagnosis, effective intervention and adherence to ‘doctors’ orders,’ my own schedule of cancer treatment can be reduced in the New Year," the King said in part then.

"This milestone is both a personal blessing and a testimony to the remarkable advances that have been made in cancer care in recent years; testimony that I hope may give encouragement to the 50 percent of us who will be diagnosed with the illness at some point in our lives," he continued.

The King is understood to have been receiving weekly treatment since Buckingham Palace announced his cancer diagnosis in February 2024 and a palace spokesperson confirmed his recovery has reached a very positive stage.
