Prince William and Princess Kate had a busy weekend, attending a church service at Crathie Kirk near the royal residence of Balmoral in Scotland.
The couple arrived, sitting in the front seat of their SUV, with their three children, Prince George (12), Princess Charlotte (10) and Prince Louis (7), in the back. And it appears Prince George took the middle seat—a surprise considering he is the oldest and tallest. The royal appearances didn’t stop there either, as King Charles and Queen Camilla, who could be seen wearing a green ensemble.

The royals are frequent attendees of Crathie Kirk, a small parish church in the Scottish village of Crathie, which itself is best known for being the British royal family’s regular place of worship when they are staying at Balmoral Castle. Balmoral is their summer vacation destination of choice.
Earlier this week, King Charles and Queen Camilla began their stay at the lavish estate, and, according to GB News, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson are nearby, and are said to be staying at Craigowan Lodge, a cozy seven-bedroom property just half a mile from the King’s main residence.

Additionally, the outlet reports that Prince Andrew and Sarah’s daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, will be joining them at some point as well, making it the ultimate family affair.

This latest church outing comes just a week after King Charles’s emotional six-minute speech to mark the 80th anniversary of VJ Day, where the King offered an emotional pre-recorded message that paid homage to the VJ Day heroes, saying that they “gave us more than freedom; they left us the example of how it can and must be protected.” He added, “In times of war and in times of peace, the greatest weapons of all are not the arms you bear, but the arms you link.”
Cheers to the royal family enjoying their last bit of summer.
