King Charles Skips Easter Message, Attends Service

0:00It's April 5th. You're listening to Entertainment and Celebrity News today, AI-powered pop culture updates. I'm Cory with the story. The royal family dropped an Easter Sunday post on social media today, featuring a cross in the words, Happy Easter? He is risen. This comes right after Buckingham Palace said, King Charles won't be putting out a personal message this year, even though it's not something he's. Required to do. In past years, he shared a pre-recorded speech during the Monde service in 2024 and a written note on the website in 20-25. His late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, didn't make one every year either, though she did a special TV spot in 2020 during COVID and followed up with writing the next year. Social media blew up, with folks calling it disappointing, saying the nation needed a message of hope from the King, especially when times feel tough. Many commented directly on the post, wishing for that personal touch from him. Meanwhile, King Charles and Queen Camilla are heading to the traditional Easter service

1:02at St. George's Chapel in Windsor today, joined by Prince, William and Kate. Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are sitting this one out with the King's okay, unlike last year when more of the family showed up. Prince Andrews out of the picture, too, after the King stripped his Prince title and duked him over the Jeffrey Epstein links and his February arrest. On his 66th day for alleged misconduct as trade envoy, as the service wraps up, I stay on how the royals navigate these holidays amid the chatter.
