It was business as usual for the Duchess of Cambridge as she spent her birthday weekend commemorating a very important historical anniversary.

On Sunday the mother-of-two, who had celebrated her 34th birthday the day before, was joined by The Queen, Prince Philip, Prince William, mother Carole Middleton, father Michael Middleton and her siblings James and Pippa Middleton to pay tribute to the 100th anniversary of the final withdrawal from the Gallipoli Peninsula during WW1.

The British Royal Family and the Middletons attended a special church service at St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham.

Catherine looked stylish in a tweed blazer and matching skirt by Michael Kors and she added a dramatic touch with a striking black fascinator.

We’re sure her two kids Prince George and Princess Charlotte made her birthday the day before a very memorable one.

2016 is shaping up to be William and Catherine’s busiest year yet as the palace confirmed over the weekend they will embark on a tour of India and Bhutan in April, without their two children.

It will mark the royal couples first ever visit to Bhutan, which is a Buddhist country nestled in the Himalayas.

On Sunday, The Queen and Prince Philip led the commemorations to mark the 100th anniversary of the final withdrawal from the Gallipoli Peninsula during the First World War.

Catherine’s beloved family including mother Carole, father Michael and siblings Michael and Pippa Middleton were also in attendance. Perhaps an indication that the day before they had all gathered at Anmer Hall to celebrate the Duchess of Cambridge’s 34th birthday.

It’s been a big week for the couple as they also sent off Prince George to his first day at kindergarten.

The Middletons were in high spirits as they joined the British Royal Family at the church.

Prince William beamed as he stepped out with his wife.
