All together on Christmas Day: the Royal Family attended services at St.Mary Magdalene Church at the Queen’s Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. Front and center in the ever-growing crowd was Meghan Markle, the first royal fiancée to be invited to join the celebrations. The Duchess of Cambridge has fully recovered from her morning sickness, and her baby bump was clearly visible beneath her smart tartan coat. The 91-year-old Queen dazzled in her eye-catching orange outfit as she and sprightly 96-year-old Prince Philip led the procession out of the church. They were all greeted warmly by a large gathering of onlookers.
