Kate Middleton Backs William’s Royal Reset, Christmas Message Signals Calm, and Andrew’s Quiet Retreat
Update: 2025-12-19
Description
Catherine, the Princess of Wales, is said to have pledged unwavering support to Prince William as he prepares for what insiders describe as a major overhaul of the monarchy, potentially beginning as early as 2026. Sources say the past year of illness, pressure and family strain has strengthened their bond as they focus on stability, impact and a quieter Christmas.
We also look at the Wales family’s new Christmas photograph and message, and reports that Kate has stepped back from efforts to reconcile William and Harry.
After the break, fresh claims from Andrew Lownie’s book detail allegations about Sarah Ferguson’s spending habits during her time as a working royal.
We close with an update on Prince Andrew’s impending move from Royal Lodge to Marsh Farm on the Sandringham estate, the personal cost to King Charles, and what royal watchers say about Andrew’s increasingly isolated life.
