With Easter just around the corner, many fans of the royal family no doubt will be super intrigued to see what they do to celebrate the occasion.
The likes of King Charles, Queen Camilla and other members of the royal family will are set to attend the church service at Windsor Castle this weekend - but two senior royals won't be in attendance.
Now, as we know, the Prince and Princess of Wales have long been regular attendees with the rest of the royal family at the holiday gathering but they sadly missed last year's church service amid Kate's cancer diagnosis.
And now, it seems both Kate and her husband, Prince William, along with their three children - Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and six-year-old Prince Louis - will be breaking the Easter tradition for the second time in a row.

Instead, Kate and William will spend the Easter weekend with their children at their country home in Norfolk.
According to sources per The Mirror, the father-of-three previously told Charles of his plans to miss the annual gathering to 'enjoy some extended time as a family over Easter'.
"They are choosing to spend time together as a family before the children go back to school," the source reportedly added.
A few years back, the parents opened up about their children's go-to way to celebrate Easter - with an egg hunt.
"There will be a lot of chocolate being eaten here, don't worry!" he said in 2020 during their first-ever full royal engagement via video call amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Kate then turned to her husband and laughed: "You keep eating it!"
Last month, Kate broke a huge Mother's Day tradition after sharing an emotional video instead of a family photo to celebrate the day.
The clip omits her children, and focuses on the power of Mother Nature.
"Over the past year, nature has been our sanctuary," Kate wrote in the caption of the video. "This Mother’s Day, let us celebrate Mother Nature and recognise how our bond with the natural world can help not only nurture our inner selves, but remind us too of the role we play within the rich tapestry of life.

The short clip sees Kate - whose face isn't shown - touching the bark of a tree.
William also features, but viewers only see the back of his legs as he walks through the forest with Kate.
