Prince Louis stole the spotlight alongside his royal siblings at Sandringham, charming the crowd and receiving a load of gifts. The seven-year-old was visibly thrilled as he accepted a large Lindt chocolate ball from his father, Prince William, handed to him by an enthusiastic fan.
Meanwhile, future King George held onto a plush toy, just like Louis, while Charlotte reached out to receive a present. Charlotte even shared a heartwarming moment with a royal fan in a wheelchair, offering a hug to the woman wrapped in a blanket for warmth.
This royal gathering marked the festive season’s peak as the monarch, led by King and Queen, partook in a Christmas carol and prayer service at St Mary Magdalene Church on Charles’s private Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. Despite the chilly weather, hundreds eagerly gathered under the clear blue skies to catch glimpses of the royal family as they strolled to and from the church, not far from Sandringham House.
Following the service, the King, Queen, Prince, Princess of Wales, and their children mingled with the cheering crowd, many sporting festive attire like Santa hats, tinsel necklaces, and reindeer antlers.
Prince Louis joyfully clutched a large Lindor chocolate treat and warmly greeted well-wishers. Louis, Charlotte, and George were all spotted carrying gifts as they interacted with the waiting crowd outside Sandringham.
Louis received a generous teddy bear from a member of the public, while the young royals were seen admiring their footwear choices. In another sweet moment, the prince’s face lit up as he received another soft toy and more chocolate.
Prince William’s daughter radiated joy as she paraded through the crowd holding a bouquet of red flowers. After the Christmas Day service, George, Charlotte, and Louis exited the church hand in hand with their parents.
Accompanied by Lena Tindall, Prince Louis, Princess Charlotte, and Mia Tindall left the church together, presenting a united front before the traditional Christmas Day mass.
