The Queen will honor Prince Philip with a treasured photograph and a special brooch in an unusually personal Christmas message

The Queen is expected to honor her late husband, Prince Philip, by wearing a special brooch and appearing with a photo of him.

Buckingham Palace released pictures of herself and the Duke of Edinburgh looking at each other on their diamond wedding anniversary in 2007, according to the BBC.

The Queen wore a dress made by her friend and designer, and recorded the message.

The monarch wore the same brooch as in the photograph, which she wore at her honeymoon photoshoot in 1947.

It was given to her as a gift in 1946, and is part of her collection. She wears it on many occasions, such as overseas visits and in portraits with her children when they were young.

The brooch is on her right this time, unlike in previous appearances where it was pinned to the left. Fans of the royal will wonder if it's a reference to the loss of her husband, as some widows move their wedding ring to the right hand.
The Queen and her husband were married for 73 years. A service of thanksgiving for the prince will take place in the spring of 2022.

The Queen will not have Prince Philip at Christmas in 2021.

The Telegraph said that her speech this year is "particularly personal."

The Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cornwall will be staying with the Queen at Windsor Castle during the festive period after she canceled plans to travel to her estate for the holidays.

Her Christmas message will be broadcasted on December 25. UK time is the same as it has been for a long time.
