Prince William is giving royal fans hints of what 2025 is going to look like for him and Kate Middleton after a very challenging year. The Prince and Princess of Wales are looking to reshape their roles and refine what their future reign will look like.

“She’s doing well,” William told The Times, referring to his wife and her health. Kate has started to make her slow return to public duties, even attending the National Service of Remembrance ceremony in London on Sunday alongside other senior members of the royal family.

According to professional lip reader Nicola Hickling, who spoke to The Sun, Sophie asked the Princess of Wales "you like a beard?" Kate allegedly went ahead and responded with "I find it quite rousing" and Sophie said "you're all better now" as they both laughed.
