Here are some photos of the British royal family’s Christmas outing yesterday. The whole clan – with a few notable absentee royals – made their way to church on Christmas morning. Kate and William were there, and so were Kate’s parents and siblings. But Prince George was not invited, because… he’s loud. Super-loud. Prince Charles were there but not Camilla, because she apparently threw out her back. Poor Cammy.
For Christmas day, Kate chose shades of brown instead of black (she’s been wearing a lot of black lately, right?). What Kate Wore says the coat is probably by Moloh, perhaps the Turpin style, only Kate had the coat made longer (and presumably more buttony). The hat is a repeat Lock & Company piece. She’s worn that several times. We’ve seen the earrings before too – they are Catherine Zoraida Double Leaf earrings. Apparently, when Kate was speaking to some of the well-wishers waiting outside the church, she confessed to feeling very “big.” Well, you’re preggo, girl! It’s okay to feel big.
As for how Kate and Will split their time between the Middletons and the royals, from what I gather (from the Daily Mail) is that Will and Kate did Christmas morning with the royals, then church with everybody, then Will had a very Middleton-heavy family dinner at Anmer Hall. The Middletons were not invited to Sandringham with the Queen at any point, although the Mail does say that the Queen “personally invited” the Middletons to church on Christmas and the Middletons “tactfully” drove themselves to church and arrived ahead of the royal family. As for Will and Kate’s decision to spend Christmas dinner away from the royals, a source said: “The Queen understands that they have other family commitments.” You can read more here.
Oh, and the Queen wore Angela Kelly – the coat and hat are both by Kelly.
