At Sandringham everything is ready for the first parties without the Queen Elizabethand while confirmation has arrived from Buckingham Palace that, as per tradition, family members will participate in mass at St. Mary Magdalene Church on 25 December, King Charles III he is also preparing for his first Christmas speech, which will be broadcast on television.

Impossible to predict what Charles III will talk about, but there will probably be a mention of his mother, who passed away last September, because a sovereign’s Christmas speech is the summa of the year that has just ended. “The king has enormous empathy for people who suffer loss,” continued the insider, pointing out that we are so used to seeing the queen on TV at Christmas, as well as in the front row at mass at Sandringham, that it could not be otherwise: “There will be a lot of reflection and pain this year.”

Carlo today has the task of accepting his legacy, supporting a role for which he has been preparing all his life. In addition to the reference to the mother, more than likely, the king’s speech could also contain a hint of the children, but we don’t expect great revelations, especially in relation to the Sussexes and what was declared in the last episodes of their docuseries.
The speech was recorded before the release of the latest episodes and, according to what the The Telegraph, has not undergone any subsequent revisions. To find out more, we will have to wait for December 25th, at 3 pm.
