Once again giving the royal community a brilliant weekend surprise, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge brought Prince George and Princess Charlotte to another much-anticipated event – The Easter service at the St. George’s Chapel of Windsor Castle. It was the first time when Prince George and Princess Charlotte attended the annual family event.
95 years old, Her Majesty The Queen, did not attend the service due to her mobility issue, and it has been reported that we will not see her much around the public events anymore. Prince Charles and The Duchess of Cornwall attended the Maundy Service this week and are spending Easter at their Balmoral estate.
Kensington Palace wished the well-wishers a happy Easter with a social media post.
Joining The Cambridges were The Earl and Countess of Wessex with Lord Severn and Lady Louise, Peter Phillips and his two daughters Savannah and Isla, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, Mike and Zara Tindall with their daughter Mia Tindall. It surely looked like a happy family reunion at the Windsor castle after the service where families usually come together for the lunch every year.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have just returned from a skiing holiday in Courchevel in France last week. They treated their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis to the luxury resort who are on Easter break from school until April 20th.
Once again the family was looking color-coordinated in blue outfits. Just like her previous attendances, The Duchess of Cambridge once again chose to repeat something from her wardrobe for the annual service. A look at her previous outfits can be found here.
This was the fourth time when The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have attended the Easter Service at Windsor Castle since getting married in April 2011. In 2012 they joined Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall at Balmoral Estate for the service. In 2013, they spent it in Anglesey, where William was working as a search and rescue pilot. The 2014 Easter service was spent in Australia when the couple was undertaking their first-ever tour of Australia-NewZealand.
They joined the Middleton family in 2015 and 2016 for the service. In 2017, the couple first time attended the service with The Queen followed by 2018 and 2019. 2020 and 2021 services were canceled due to the pandemic.
This time it was the turn for the blue Emilia Wickstead Coat Dress that we first saw in 2017 during Catherine’s Luxembourg visit. The fit-and-flare silhouette coat has a set-in waistband and notch collar with peak lapels.
The Duchess paired the coat with her Jane Taylor Diamond Crepe Pleated Headband with floral knot detail on both sides that was first worn at the first Sunday church service in Norfolk in January 2019.
Catherine paired the outfit with Emmy London Rebecca Riviera Pumps.
The Duchess of Cambridge was carrying Emmy London Natasha Duck Egg Suede clutch. Thanks to Emma for the id.
Her Cassandra Goad Cavolfiore Pearl Studs that she debuted at the christening of Prince Louis in July 2018 completed the look.
Princess Charlotte was wearing Rachel Riley Forget Me Not Smocked Dress. The Cotton £119 dress is described as, “New! Puff sleeved party dress with gathered skirt and traditional hand smocked panel with forget me not design, peter pan collar trimmed in blue, button opening.” Thanks to Found by Bojana for the id.

The Cambridge family along with the Wessex family and Mapelli Mozzi family stayed at the Windsor Castle with The Queen for the weekend. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were seen leaving Windsor Castle and Prince Louis was having fun while William and Catherine were looking after the seating arrangements.
For the departure, The Duchess of Cambridge was wearing her Ridley London that she first wore in June 2019 during a visit to Warren Park.

The Palace has not announced any engagement for The Duchess yet but the family will be back in London full-time this week. Prince Louis is celebrating his 4th birthday next weekend so we can expect another portrait to mark his birthday.
