The event marks the first time Prince George, 6, and Princess Charlotte, 4, have appeared alongside their parents on the traditional Christmas morning walk. As for their one-year-old brother Prince Louis, he stayed at home since he’s still a little too young for the tradition.
Prince George looked adorably dapper in a navy suit, while Princess Charlotte wore an adorable green, double-breasted coat that complemented her mom’s accessories.
The young princess easily captured the hearts of the well-wishes, even stopping to hug a woman who gifted her a pink flamingo. Later on in the morning she was spotted curtsying as her great-grandmother passed by.
Ahead of the Christmas Day festivities, the royal couple shared a candid new portrait on the Kensington Palace Instagram account.
The photo, which was taken by Middleton at the family’s Norfolk home earlier this year, sees Prince William crouching down to give his youngest son a kiss as Prince George and Princess Charlotte smile at the camera.
“Merry Christmas! This photograph of The Duke of Cambridge, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis was taken by The Duchess of Cambridge in Norfolk earlier this year,” the caption read. “We wish all our followers a very happy and relaxing Christmas Day.”
