Will Prince Harry feature in the King's Speech?
In short, no, Prince Harry is not expected to be mentioned in today's King's Speech.
Royal expert Jennie Bond says: “Charles wouldn’t address the challenges with Harry on TV. I doubt he’ll mention Harry at all.
“I don’t think he’ll mention William either, as he knows that will be seen as a dig to Harry.”
Who writes the King's Speech?
King Charles will, of course, lead the way in writing his Christmas address, but the monarch reportedly seeks advice from those close to him.
While Charles takes great pride in writing his own speeches, Royal expert Jennie Bond explains that he leans on his private secretary, Sir Clive Alderton, and wife Camilla for support.
She said: “Charles is a man who loves to write and loves words.
“He will take great pride in writing his speech and it will be 90% his own work. He will of course run things by the private secretary but he will want to feel like the words are his own.
“Some people felt a bit of a distance with the Queen but Charles speaks with a lot of warmth and wisdom.
“He’ll want people to feel seen and understood.”
