The Queen Attends Post-Christmas Church Service with Prince Charles & Princess Anne

From Harper's BAZAAR


The festive season is over, but the queen is still in Sandringham, along with several members of the royal family.

On Sunday morning, the monarch traveled to the local village church, and was accompanied at the service by a number of her children. Prince Charles, Princess Anne, and Prince Edward all walked from the Sandringham Estate to St. Mary Magdalene church, along with Edward's daughter, Lady Louise Windsor, and Anne's husband, Sir Timothy Laurence.

Queen Elizabeth was positively glowing in a light yellow ensemble, and traveled by car to the service with Edward's wife, Countess Sophie.

Earlier this week, the Queen's Christmas Broadcast was shown around the world. As well as discussing her 1970 meeting with the astronauts who landed on the Moon, the queen adorably mentioned her newest great-grandchild, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor.

Queen Elizabeth also urged people to consider what "can be achieved when people set aside past differences and come together in the spirit of friendship and reconciliation." She said, "And, as we all look forward to the start of a new decade, it’s worth remembering that it is often the small steps, not the giant leaps, that bring about the most lasting change."
