Kate Middleton and the future Queen Camilla clearly consulted one another on their Easter Sunday outfit as they both chose to wear royal blue. Kate Middleton opted for a bespoke Catherine Walker coat dress, a label she has worn (like her late mother in law Princess Diana), many times before. 

Kate Middleton, Prince William, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis joined King Charles and Camilla, along with other senior royals, to an Easter Sunday service at St George’s Chapel in Windsor.

If you think Kate Middleton’s Catherine Walker coat dress looks familiar, you would be right. She first wore it to the Commonwealth Day Service last year. For that occasion, Prince William opted for a navy suit and blue tie.

For the Easter Sunday service, King Charles and Camilla were also joined by his sister Princess Anne, and his brother, Prince Andrew. Other Royals in attendance included Zara and Mike Tindall (alongside two of their three children, Mia and Lena), Princess Beatrice and husband Edo Mapelli Mozzi and Princess Eugenie with husband Jack Brooksbank.

The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh (Prince Edward and his wife Sophie) were joined by their son, James, the Earl of Wessex, but their daughter, Lady Louise was not present. Princess Anne’s husband Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence was also in attendance, as was the late Princess Margaret’s daughter Lady Sarah Chatto and her husband Daniel.

As well as it being King Charles’s first Easter Sunday as King and the first without his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth 11, it is also his 18th wedding anniversary.
