Prince William and Kate, the Prince and Princess of Wales, skipped the Royal Raster celebrations for the second year this time. Their absence from the Royal family’s Easter celebrations was noticed by all and thus raised many eyes about their whereabouts. Is this just a concern of timing or is there another rift forming between the royal family members?

Instead of joining King Charles, Queen Camila and the other royal family members in the Easter Matins Service at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor, the Prince and Princess of Wales headed to Anmer Hall, their country home in Norfolk alongside their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Well, it seems the decision to not attend the Easter celebrations was made to spend some quality time with the family rather than because of a rift. In a conversation with The Sun, a source close to the royal family explained William and Kate’s decision, “They are choosing to spend time together as a family before the children go back to school.”
The royal couple had previously skipped the Easter of 2024 after Kate announced that she had been diagnosed with cancer that March. She later announced that she was in remission after undergoing treatment.

King Charles, alongside Queen Camilla, celebrated Easter at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor. He was accompanied by his three siblings and their spouses, Princess Anne with her husband Sir Timothy Laurence, Prince Andrew with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson and Prince Edward with his wife Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh. Princess Beatrice along with her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozz and son James, Earl of Wessex, and Princess Eugenie with her husband Jack Brooksbank were also seen in attendance.
