Prince William and Kate Middleton Skip Easter Service Again, Sparking Royal Snub Rumors
Prince William and Kate Middleton Skip Royal Easter Again, Raising Questions About Intentional Snub
The Prince and Princess of Wales, Prince William and Princess Kate, have once again opted out of the royal family’s traditional Easter celebration — sparking fresh speculation about their absence.
Second Year Away from the Royal Spotlight
For the second consecutive year, William and Kate did not attend the Easter service at St George’s Chapel in Windsor. The 2025 decision, reported by Us Weekly, has “raised eyebrows” within royal circles. One insider even described their absence as a “deliberate move and possibly a snub.”
Instead of joining King Charles, Queen Camilla, and other senior royals at the annual gathering, the couple chose to spend the holiday privately at Anmer Hall in Norfolk with their three children — Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
A royal source told The Mirror, “They are choosing to spend time together as a family before the children go back to school.”
Speculation Grows Amid Kate’s Recovery
While the family's absence last Easter was widely understood due to Princess Kate’s cancer diagnosis, this year’s choice has stirred renewed curiosity and concern.
“Everyone understood the family not attending last year when Kate was sick, but there’s been a lot of raised eyebrows at the Palace about William’s decision to skip again this year,” a source told Us Weekly.“It feels like a deliberate move and even a snub,” they added.
A Quiet Easter for the Future King and Queen
Meanwhile, King Charles and Queen Camilla led a scaled-down Easter service in Windsor, accompanied by key members of the Firm including Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, Sarah Ferguson, and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh.
Prince William and Kate Middleton’s low-profile approach this Easter appears to be part of a broader strategy to focus on family and recovery, as the Princess continues to heal privately after going public .
