    On Christmas Day, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis joined their parents for a morning church service in Sandringham. After church, they met with royal fans, some of whom offered gifts to members of the Royal Family. In fact, Prince Louis was seen "grabbing" a chocolate gift from his dad, Prince William. Now, a charity has revealed they were "overwhelmed" by George, Charlotte, and Louis's generosity this Christmas.

    In an Instagram post shared by The Baby Bank—a charity dedicated to supporting newborn babies and children near Windsor—George, Charlotte, and Louis were praised. "2025 saw The Baby Bank turn 10 years old," the caption explained. "As we reflect on this, we are overwhelmed by the constant support of our community as well as schools, organizations, and businesses that have come together to provide collective donations."
