COMMENTARY: Some would possibly counsel that 2024 was not the perfect yr for the British royal household, however as we take a peek again at what went proper and mistaken, what can we stay up for in 2025?
Prince William and Kate Middleton

In accordance with my sources, each William and Catherine, together with the King and Queen, have all been invited to Trump’s inauguration on January 20 in Washington, D.C.
Catherine, in the meantime, has been reactivating all of the charitable good works that she began out with in 2023, which got here predominantly to a shuddering halt together with her most cancers prognosis.
What is basically occurring behind the scenes is solely this: each William and Catherine are being fast-tracked to tackle extra royal duties and that is the easy reality of age. As everyone knows, his Majesty the King and the Queen at the moment are of their 70s.Â
In contrast to the earlier Prince of Wales, William doesn’t have the posh of time, and Catherine additionally is aware of that when the inevitable does occur, her life will change past all recognition, no matter her youngsters’s ages, and might solely hark again to the very younger Queen Elizabeth and the way she needed to dedicate her life to the crown.

Prince Andrew
Prince Andrew continues to dominate the information, however for all of the mistaken causes. Nevertheless, not like sure royal family members, he has resisted the temptation to attempt to rectify himself by writing a ebook. In accordance with a well-placed supply, Andrew sooner or later want to see a low-key return to royal life, predominantly specializing in charitable works and likewise largely out of the media highlight.Â
