James Middleton and Pippa Middleton, their other children, joined Carole, 69, and Michael, 75, during their daughter’s carol service on Friday. King Charles and Queen Camilla were not there, but all the Middletons were there to cheer on the Princess of Wales.

The Times reporter Kate Mansey heard Princess Kate talking to singer-songwriter and actor Paloma Faith, revealing another adorable Louis moment. Kate mentioned that Louis sadly found it difficult to hide the surprise from his sister Charlotte, who takes ballet classes, while they were talking about the ballet performance, which was a surprise that was revealed after the service.

“This morning, he said, ‘Mummy, please can I tell her – I’m bursting.’ ” the royal holiday host revealed.

At one point during the service, Charlotte was reportedly spotted standing like a dancer, her feet in third place.

According to the palace, 1,600 people will gather in Westminster Abbey on December 6 for the holiday performance, which will welcome those who have helped others in their communities through volunteer work, personal relationships, or employment, as well as those who have gone through challenging circumstances this year.
