Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are set to have a very special “big family event” with mum Princess Kate just before Christmas, a royal commentator has claimed.
The Princess of Wales will host her annual Together at Christmas Carol service at Westminster Abbey on December 6 and is expected to be joined by other members of the Royal Family, including her children.
This year’s service, the fourth in a row, will reflect “how much we need each other, especially in the most difficult times of our lives” and it will be broadcast on Christmas Eve.
It will be one of the handful of events the future Queen has attended in 2024, in what has been dubbed by many a challenging year as she was diagnosed with an undisclosed type of cancer and has stayed away from the spotlight for several months to undergo treatment for it.
Now royal expert Jennie Bond says that this year’s event will be quite a special occasion for the princess as well as her family.
She told GB News: “It’s a date that many of her family, on both sides, will not want to miss.”
She added: “I’m sure they will make it as big a family event as possible.
“It will also be a chance for the children to see mum back in action, looking well and happy. And that will be the best Christmas present they could hope for.
“It has become an occasion when we see quite a large turnout of the Royal Family, which really marks the beginning of the royal Christmas.”
Ms Bond added that the event holds a special place in Kate’s heart and is something that she has been working on behind the scene, throughout her cancer treatment.
She explained: “It’s one of those evenings when the rest of the royal family take a back seat. This is Kate’s baby and Kate’s night.
“William always looks as if he is bursting with pride when his wife takes centre stage – which she now does with confidence.
“In a way I think the concert was the springboard for Kate to be seen as her own woman, launching solo projects and concentrating on causes and issues in which she’s personally invested.”
She concluded: “And, just as we were told that the King’s recent tour was a real fillip for him, this concert will undoubtedly be a boost for her confidence as she slowly returns to the public arena.”
