Other members accompanied the King as he bid farewell to 2023 - including Camilla's sister Annabel Elliot.

After the church service, they will reportedly spend the rest of the day horseback riding, pheasant shooting and other outdoor activities.

The family had previously left Buckingham Palace for the Norfolk estate just before Christmas to begin the celebrations.

The decades-old tradition see members including Prince William and Kate Middleton present with their three children George, Charlotte and Louis.

But they have previously opted to miss these celebrations in the past to spend New Year's with Kate's family.

Zara Philips and Mike Tindall have also been in attendance in previous years along with their two children.

Meghan and Harry have not been part of the festive holidays since stepping down from Royal duties in 2020.

Meghan Markle's New Year resolutions have recently resurfaced amid hopes for a "year of redemption".

On January 1, 2016 - just six months before meeting Prince Harry - Meghan took to her now-defunct blog The Tig to share her resolutions.

Meghan wrote: "These make my New Year's resolution list nearly (AKA actually every) single year. The swearing comes in lulls triggered by being overworked or feeling mighty cheeky after a couple drinks.

"And when it comes to the biting of the nails—well, it still happens with a turbulent flight or a stressful day. It's unladylike. But then again, so is the swearing. Dammit."

It comes as King Charles has failed to mention Prince Harry or Prince Andrew in his Christmas message.

Most senior members of the royal family featured in his annual speech - but the Duke of York and the Duke of Sussex were missing.

But relations between the Duke, King Charles III, and Prince William have been increasingly strained since the fallout from bombshells in his book Spare and his Netflix documentary.

Earlier this year, we revealed how Harry snubbed an offer to spend the anniversary of the Queen’s death at Balmoral in Scotland with his father and Queen Camilla.

Meanwhile, Prince Andrew is allegedly "totally tormented" as his name is "set to appear" in an unsealed document related to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, it has been claimed.

The firm set up to manage the prince's investments has secured £210,000 worth of funding from a mystery donor.

His ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York appeared in public at Sandringham for the first time in years, walking beside her ex-husband and smiling broadly.
