Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been seen walking his dogs as members of the Royal Family gathered for an Easter Sunday service.

The former Duke of York was spotted on Saturday taking a solo stroll in the fields with what appeared to be three dogs.

The former prince kept warm in the windy conditions with a thick brown jacket and beige-like trousers.

He has appeared numerous times since his arrest in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

Andrew spent 11 hours in police custody on his 66th birthday before being released under investigation.

The former Duke of York has always denied any wrongdoing but has not responded to the latest allegations.

Earlier today, senior members of the Royal Family, including Andrew's sibling, attended St George's Chapel for the traditional Easter Sunday service at Windsor Castle.

The Prince and Princess of Wales accompanied the royal couple with their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Andrew's daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, were notably absent from the ceremony today, having made alternative plans with the approval of the King.

Prince Edward and his son James, Earl of Wessex, were both in attendance, as well as Princess Anne and her husband, Sir Timothy Laurence.

Peter Phillips arrived with his fiancée, Harriet Sperling, who recently announced they will be getting married on June 6, while Zara and Mike Tindall were not in attendance.

Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, and her daughter, Lady Louise Windsor, were also not in attendance.

Prince William could be seen saying "Happy Easter" to the King and Queen, who were driven down to St George's Chapel as other senior members walked.

Numerous fans were in attendance to get a glimpse of the royals as they made their way to the Easter Matins service.

The sun emerged as the royals arrived on a day that had been blustery and cold in Berkshire.

In one sweet moment upon arrival, the King greeted his grandson, Prince Louis, by extending his arm and seemingly touching his cheek before proceeding into the Chapel.

His Majesty then met well-wishers after the service with his wife, engaging with fans who made their way to support the royals.

Upon arrival at the Chapel, shouts of "God save the King" were heard as the royals went in.

Onlookers enthusiastically shared with the King and Queen how far they had travelled to see them, with some coming from Germany, Hungary, Northern Ireland, and Cumbria.

The King remarked: "I have very happy memories of Hungary years ago."

Another man in the crowd thanked the King for all he "did for the Jewish community" in the UK.
