The Prince of Wales radiated pride as he observed his daughter, Princess Charlotte, engage with the public during their Christmas Day outing.

Enthusiastic supporters welcomed the father-daughter pair and other Royal Family members during the traditional Sandringham walkabout on December 25.

Princess Charlotte, at ten years old, appeared equally delighted, engaging confidently with royal admirers, warmly receiving gifts, and posing for photos with a beaming grin.

A newly surfaced clip of William, 43, watching his daughter with evident pride, has gained significant attention on social media, with many enchanted by the heartwarming interaction between the Princess and her father.

In the video, William is seen asking Charlotte, “Are you okay?” to which his middle child nodded, continuing her conversations with ease.

Elsewhere, adorable photos captured the future King George, 12, clutching a soft toy alongside his younger brother Louis, seven, while Charlotte could be seen reaching over to collect a present.

The Princess of Wales, 43, also delighted well-wishers while Queen Camilla and other senior royals waved to doting crowds.

A 500-strong crowd of fans watched the Royal Family on the day, some of whom had been queuing for hours.

Several also offered gifts, including Christmas selection boxes, soft toys, and bouquets of flowers.

Gemma Clark, 45, from Long Sutton, Lincolnshire, told the Daily Mail how she had gifted Princess Charlotte a pink flamingo toy during a previous Christmas visit to Sandringham – and that the young royal had remembered the gesture.

Her father, Paul Clark, 75, added: ‘We come here a lot although we missed it last year as I was ill. I asked Charlotte if she remembered the flamingo and she said she did.’

He said the family had bought the toy for £3 from a local Spar shop but decided to give it to Charlotte, then aged four, after noticing her looking fondly at the toy as she walked into church in 2019.

The Princess could be seen walking around the estate with a bouquet of bright red flowers clutched in her hand.

Other photos showed her younger brother armed with a generous selection of presents, including various sweet treats and a blue stuffed toy.

Maureen Pitt, 90, travelled to see the royals from Wolverhampton, West Midlands, with her daughter Vanessa Pitt, who acts as her carer.

The widow came with four selection boxes for George, Charlotte and Louis, as well as Zara and Mike Tindall’s daughter Mia, but said: ‘I told William not to let them have them until later because they’ve probably had enough chocolate already this morning.

‘He was lovely, just so ordinary – he’s just like his mother. He asked me my name and I gave him the chocolate.

‘Kate and the children were lovely too.’

Kate and Charlotte had also delighted fans the night before, after they teamed up for a piano duet.

The duet, which took place at Kate’s annual carol concert, aired on Christmas Eve, and was shown alongside a voiceover of Kate reading the letter that was given to guests at the Westminster Abbey concert on December 5. 

The mother and daughter played Holm Sound by Erland Cooper, a Scottish composer and producer from the Orkney Islands, whose work is inspired by nature and connection, themes which are of deep importance to the Princess of Wales.

Holm Sound was written and composed by Erland for his mother, Charlotte.

The special moment was recorded in the Inner Hall at Windsor Castle and the royals were joined on the day by Erland himself.

In the voiceover, Kate said: ‘At its heart Christmas speaks of love taking form in the simplest most human ways.

‘Not in sentimental or grand gestures. But gentle ones. A moment of listening. A word of comfort. A friendly conversation. A helping hand. Presents.

‘These simple acts of care might seem small but they contribute to the beautiful tapestry of life to which we all belong.

‘Christmas is a time which reminds us how deeply our lives are woven together. Just as the roots of trees share strength between the soil, unseen but vital, so too do we.

‘We are drawn by an instinctive pull towards belonging and connection.

‘At a time when life can sometimes feel fragmented or uncertain, the Christmas season invites us to remember the power of reaching out to one another with generosity of heart, understanding and hope.

‘This carol service offers a moment of collective togetherness, a chance to celebrate the spirit of community and service and to honour the visible and invisible bonds which unite us all.

‘The time, care and compassion you give often quietly and unspoken and without any expectation or recognition make an extraordinary difference to the lives of others.

‘As the year draws to a close I hope this season brings you moments of peace and clarity and that you too feel surrounded by the same love and care which you offer so freely.

‘Thank you for the warmth you have given and the kindness you have shown and the quiet constant light you bring to others. Wishing you a very happy Christmas.’
