Rare outing: William and Kate at a friend's wedding at the Church of St Peter and St Paul in Northleach, Gloucestershire, in 2010 Prince William is not a regular churchgoer despite being the future Defender of the Faith and Supreme Governor of the Church of England, the Daily Mail has learnt. Although the 30-year-old future king was confirmed into the Anglican faith in 1997, he is understood to attend services of worship only a ‘handful’ of times each year. Most of these are connected with official engagements or on special occasions in the Christian calendar such as Christmas, as well as weddings and christenings.
