King Charles and Queen Camilla made a coordinating joint appearance on Sunday, April 20 as they led the royal family at this year’s Easter Sunday festivities. While Kate Middleton and Prince William skipped out on this year’s celebration, all three of Charles’s siblings made a rare joint outing together as they stepped out at Windsor Castle on Sunday.
Charles and Camilla matched in shades of blue at the annual St. George’s Chapel service, with the king opting for a royal blue checkered suit and patterned tie while the queen wore a light blue coat dress paired with a matching hat and nude suede shoes. Fresh off their tour of Italy, the couple—who recently celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary—joined other royals like Princess Anne and Prince Edward at the yearly event.

Disgraced royal Prince Andrew also made a rare appearance with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson at the service, marking his first royal engagement in months amid rumors of tension with his older brother.The Duke and Duchess of York’s daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie also showed their support as they joined the gathering with their husbands Edoardo Mapelli Mozz and Jack Brooksbank. Eugenie opted for an all-white look with a cream coat dress paired with a matching hat and fascinator while Beatrice—who recently gave birth to her daughter Athena—wore a long sleeved teal dress with suede shoes in the same color and a patterned hat.

As the royal family came together for the Easter church service, the Prince and Princess of Wales were noticeably not in attendance. Sources previously reported that Kate and William were missing the royals’ Easter festivities for the second year in a row, instead deciding to take a family vacation with their kids Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis at their Norfolk home Anmer Hall. A source previously reported that Prince William told King Charles that he was hoping to “enjoy some extended time as a family over Easter” and that “They are choosing to spend time together as a family before the children go back to school.”

Despite missing the family reunion at St. George’s Chapel, it’s likely that the family of five still took part in traditional Easter festivities, as William previously revealed that the royals’ celebration usually includes an Easter egg hunt as well as a “lot of chocolate.”
