The Wales family looked picture perfect in coordinated looks on Christmas Day. The Prince and Princess of Wales and their kids, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, joined King Charles at morning service on Wednesday wearing smart green and blue outfits.
Catherine exuded elegance in a green Alexander McQueen coat, which she teamed with a matching fascinator, tartan scarf, black suede boots and gloves. Her Royal Highness' scarf complemented her nine-year-old daughter's adorable coat. Charlotte completed her Christmas outfit wearing navy tights, black Mary Jane flats and a velvet green bow in her hair.

Following the service at St. Mary Magdalene Church, the Waleses greeted well-wishers. According to the Daily Mail, a woman, who had worked for Macmillan Cancer Support, told the Princess of Wales, "I just wanted to say you are an inspiration to all the patients." Her Royal Highness replied, "The amount of people who have written this year is extraordinary and I think cancer just really does resonate with so many families."
Another woman is said to have told Catherine, "We're all behind you, never forget that," to which the Princess said, "Thank you very much, [that's] so kind, nice to meet you."

In a special letter given to guests at her fourth Christmas carol service earlier this month, the Princess of Wales wrote that "love is the light that can shine bright, even in our darkest times."
"The love that we show ourselves and the love we show others. Love that listens with empathy, love that is kind and understanding, love that is forgiving, and love that brings joy and hope. It is this love which is the greatest gift we can receive," Catherine penned. "Not just at Christmas, but every day of our lives."
The Princess' father-in-law, King Charles, who was diagnosed with a form of cancer earlier this year, expressed his thanks to doctors and nurses in his annual Christmas message. "From a personal point of view, I offer special heartfelt thanks to the selfless doctors and nurses who this year have supported me and other members of my family through the uncertainties and anxieties of illness and have helped provide the strength care and comfort we have needed," His Majesty said. "I am deeply grateful too to all those who have offered us their own kind words of sympathy and encouragement."
