Princess Margaret's grandson presents girlfriend to King Charles III at Christmas service

This Wednesday, December 25, the British royal family gathered in Sandringham to celebrate Christmas and attend the morning religious service in the village church. This year, Princess Margaret's family accompanied the Windsors to the service. Earl Snowdon and his sister Lady Sarah were accompanied by their children, including Arthur and Samuel Chatto. The latter had received authorization to come accompanied by his girlfriend Eleanor Ekserdjian, a privilege which could signify a very important commitment between the two loving artists.

King Charles III invites Princess Margaret's family to spend Christmas with the Windsors

Like every year, the British royal family was gathered at the Sandringham estate, in Norfolk, for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The day of December 25 began with the traditional Christmas service and this was followed by the usual family banquet. The royal family always reaches the Sainte-Marie-Madeleine church on foot, it being separated by a few tens of meters from the imposing holiday residence. On the way, King Charles III, Queen Camilla and the heir family attracted all the attention of journalists who had to be content with these few moving photos because the office was private.

This walking tour also allows you to find out who are the members invited to spend Christmas with King Charles III. In addition to the heir family, King Charles was surrounded by his siblings as well as his nephews and nieces. As in the previous year, it was noted that King Charles III had invited David Armstrong-Jones and Lady Sarah Chatto, the two children of his aunt, Princess Margaret. David, Earl of Snowdon and Lady Sarah are both parents of two children.

Samuel Chatto is accompanied by Eleanor at the Christmas service

Samuel and Arthur Chatto, 28 and 24 years old, Lady Sarah's children created a surprise because the eldest arrived accompanied. Sam Chatto, who is a promising young artist, was accompanied by his girlfriend Eleanor Ekserdjian, also a painter and video artist. The presence of a new head within the royal family has not gone unnoticed. If Samuel was able to bring Eleanor, it is very likely that their story is very serious. Some royal fans are hoping there was an engagement proposal, or even a wedding, in the air.

Samuel Chatto is now 29th in the line of succession to the British throne. Although he is the eldest of Princess Margaret's grandchildren, he is not the best known of her family. His younger brother, Arthur Chatto, had previously attracted much more public attention, particularly due to his advantageous physique that he once displayed on his public Instagram account. Eleanor Ekserdjian is a multidisciplinary artist of Armenian origin who creates installations that combine drawing, film and performance. She recently completed an MA in from the University of Edinburgh.
