Kate Middleton Rewears $20,000 Earrings for the First Time in 3 Years
King Charles held the traditional pre-Christmas lunch with senior royals, marking William and Kate's return after missing last year due to early Norfolk travel.
- On December 17 afternoon, King Charles III hosted the annual pre-Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace, with senior royals including the Wales family arriving by car.
- As a longstanding custom, the lunch is held before the family heads to Sandringham, and this year marked the return of Prince William and Princess Catherine after missing last year.
- Photos captured the family's arrival, showing Prince William driving with Princess Charlotte briefly in the front seat; Princess Catherine wore a black velvet bow and candy-apple red blouse, while Princess Eugenie sported candy-cane earrings and Princess Beatrice drove herself.
- Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has faced recent demotions, losing his last military title in 2025 after King Charles `indicated` the move, while Virginia Giuffre's family expressed they were `deeply disappointed` by the Metropolitan Police's decision.
- On December 16, Princess Catherine and Princess Charlotte matched with bow-trimmed hairstyles, continuing a recurring mother-daughter look; Catherine wore the same black velvet bow she sported at a VE Day concert, while Charlotte wore a bow earlier this month at the Together at Christmas concert.
