Kate has written a letter for the 1,600 Westminster Abbey service-goers, including members of the royal family, telling nthem: “Love is the light that can shine bright, even in our darkest times.”
Her message, featured with the order of service for the event on Friday, will say: “This carol service is a heartfelt celebration of every one of you, and a reminder that at Christmas, and throughout the year, we must all shine for each other. Because in times of joy and sadness, we are all each other’s light.”
During the past year, the princess has returned to public duties after being treated for cancer, while the King is still under the care of cancer specialists, and the service aims to provide a moment of reflection about the importance of loved ones, especially during difficult times.
