Photograph of the Queen delivering this year’s Christmas Day message.
This year’s 3pm speech is described as “particularly personal” after her beloved Prince Philip died in April.
2021 will be the first Christmas the Queen will spend without the Duke of Edinburgh
.
🖼 On the desk in front of the Queen, sitting in the White Drawing Room at Windsor Castle, the photograph of her and Prince Philip taken in Broadlands, Hampshire on their Diamond Wedding Anniversary, 2007.
It was a remake of one they had in Nov 1947 on their honeymoon in Broadlands.
.
💎 Even the brooch the Queen is wearing for the Christmas message (sapphire & chrysanthemum) is the same as she wore with Prince Philip in 2007 and 1947.
The content of her speech is excepted to focus on Prince Philip in the first Christmas season the Queen will spend without him.
