In a poignant moment of togetherness, Kate Middleton stepped out with her family for the royal tradition of Christmas Day services at St. Mary Magdalene Church on Wednesday, Dec. 25. After a particularly challenging year marked by her cancer diagnosis, the Princess of Wales was joined by her husband, Prince William, and their children,  Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6.

Their appearance together was a powerful display of family unity, as they greeted well-wishers.

Here's a look at some of the most touching moments from their Christmas Day walk to church.

Royal Tradition

The Prince and Princess of Wales shared a smile as they walked with their kids, where Prince William held Princess Charlotte's hand in a sweet sign of their tight father-daughter bond.

Look of Love

Princess Kate gave her kids a look of love as she walked in step with her family.

The British royal family's public-facing march to and from church at St. Mary Magdalene on the Sandringham estate is a time-honored Christmas tradition, and especially memorable as one of Princess Kate's few appearances in 2024 after undergoing treatment for cancer and completing chemotherapy.

Family First

King Charles and Queen Camilla led the family at Sandringham, continuing tradition amid a difficult year in which the King, 76, was also diagnosed with cancer. The sovereign's treatment is ongoing, and palace sources said it will continue into 2025, moving "in a very positive direction."

Christmas Cheer

After the service, Kate warmly greeted members of the public who lined the route, eager to catch a glimpse of the royal family.

Season's Greetings

With a bright smile, she shook hands, accepted armfuls of flowers, and knelt to speak with young children.

Public Support

Well-wisher Karen Mclean, 73, who has endured cancer for over 20 years, spoke with both Kate and King Charles.

“We just had a little talk about cancer,” she told Sky News, recalling a warm exchange with the princess. Kate hugged Ms. Maclean, who had traveled from North Lincolnshire for the occasion.

She noted that both Kate and Charles appeared "very well actually, considering what they're going through." After hugging Kate, she added, “What a privilege.”

Festive Trio

Led by their grandfather, King Charles, the children smiled and greeted well-wishers who lined the route as the family made their way to church service at St. Mary Magdalene Church at Sandringham in Norfolk, where the royal family gathers each year to celebrate the holiday.
