This December 25, Charles III addressed the British people in a pre-recorded holiday message. He took stock of his year.
A year 2024 marked by illness. As usual, King Charles III spoke to the British people in a message for these end-of-year celebrations. He took stock of what he experienced throughout the year and obviously returned to the illness which affected him and which affected his beautiful daughter, Kate Middleton. In February, the royal family announced that Charles III was suffering from cancer and a few weeks later, it was Prince William’s wife, Kate Middleton, who also revealed that she was suffering from cancer.
