(CNN) Prince Andrew attended a private Christmas Day church service with his family Wednesday, pictures from the Queen's Sandringham estate showed.

The 59-year-old -- who is also known as the Duke of York -- walked to St. Mary Magdalene Church alongside his older brother, Prince Charles.

Andrew has kept a low profile since his withdrawal from public life last month following a disastrous BBC interview about his friendship with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The disgraced financier died by suicide in August.

Prince Andrew and his brother, Prince charles are seen walking side by side into St. Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham, Norfolk on Wednesday.

A short time later, Queen Elizabeth II and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, were seen arriving by car to a second public Christmas day service. The 93-year-old monarch traditionally spends the festive season with members of the royal family at Sandringham, her country estate in rural Norfolk, about 100 miles north of London.

The pair were met by the Queen's daughter, Princess Anne , at the gate of the church. The Queen's youngest son, Prince Edward, also attended, as did Prince William and his wife , Kate and two of their children, George and Charlotte.
