Prince Charles Delivers Speech at Windsor Castle Event
During his speech to Macron, the 76-year-old gushed: “The Castle in which we meet this evening was begun by my ancestor, and your sometime countryman, William, Duke of Normandy, in the year 1070.”
He continued: “It remains the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world, so it is perhaps rather appropriate that my son, The Prince of Wales, who shares that earlier William’s name, has made Windsor his home with his family, like so many of our predecessors.”
The event was attended by Charles’ wife, Camilla, Queen Consort, William, and his wife, Kate Middleton, as well as other senior royals.
Charles failed to mention Harry, who, in 2020, tossed his royal life aside and moved to Montecito, California, with Markle.
Prince Charles recently delivered a speech at an event held at Windsor Castle, where he highlighted the historical significance of the castle. In his address, the Prince emphasized the castle’s origins, dating back to the year 1070 when it was founded by his ancestor, William, Duke of Normandy.
He went on to mention that Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world, making it a fitting residence for his son, The Prince of Wales, and his family. Charles expressed pride in the fact that his son, who shares the same name as the castle’s founder, has chosen to make Windsor his home, following in the footsteps of previous royals.
The event was attended by several members of the royal family, including Charles’ wife, Camilla, Queen Consort, William, and Kate Middleton. However, Prince Harry was notably absent from the mention in Charles’ speech. Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, made headlines in 2020 when they decided to step back from their royal duties and relocate to Montecito, California.
Despite the absence of Harry in Charles’ speech, the event at Windsor Castle was a significant gathering of senior royals, showcasing the rich history and tradition of the British monarchy.
