Prince George: His reindeer picture inspires the artist of the original
Not only did Prince George, 9, cause enthusiasm with his drawing for Christmas among the many royal fans, but also the artist who inspired the eldest son of Catherine, Princess of Wales, 40, and Prince William, 40 , he was fully convinced.
On December 25, the British Crown Prince and Princess surprised with very special Christmas greetings by publishing a self-painted reindeer picture of George. Now the artist Hannah Dale, who created the original, spoke up and praised George’s talent.
Hannah Dale was surprised to see George’s drawing on Christmas Day and was honored that her motif of a reindeer in the snow with birds on its antlers resonated so well with the nine-year-old that he tried it himself. In her opinion, George’s version is definitely successful. “He obviously has talent. He has an eye for shape and color. It was beautiful. It was really nice to see. He has a good eye for color. I think that’s always difficult with watercolor, but he has some good shades and tones. I think his love for animals and nature is obviously something that has caught his attention,” the painter told HELLO!” and emphasizes that George’s parents are certainly proud of their son.

Sarah Ferguson: Touching Poem for Queen Elizabeth
Sarah Ferguson, 63, once again commemorates her former mother-in-law. At New Year, she dedicates touching lines to Queen Elizabeth, † 96. “We will always miss you, dearest friend. You are in our hearts. Happy New Year,” writes Prince Andrew’s ex-wife, 62, on Instagram for a photo that shows the monarch, who died in September, radiant in a yellow costume on Royal Ascot 2018 shows.
In the next picture you can read the handwritten poem entitled “We Will Miss You Dearest Friend”. “When the primroses appear so clear on the shores of Windsor to see new beginnings, new paths, new rainbows, you are hidden in our hearts even though we are apart – so welcome 2023 knowing you are free. Happy New Year year”, is how the emotional lines with which Sarah Ferguson once again pays tribute to her beloved ex-mother-in-law.
King Charles and Queen Camilla at the service in Sandringham
King Charles, 74, is starting the new year with a tradition from his late mother. Together with Queen Camilla, 75, he attended the New Year’s service in Sandringham on January 1, 2023 in a good mood and in the best weather. The couple were welcomed by the Bishop of Norwich, Graham Usher, and the Reverend Canon, Dr. Paul Williams, received. On the way to St. Mary Magdalene Church, the monarch and his wife even had time to greet the people waiting. Camilla was wrapped up warm for the occasion in a dark brown coat and black gloves, along with a feathered hat. Charles had chosen a light tweed coat with a dark suit for his first New Year’s service in his new role as king.
King Charles is thus taking up a popular tradition from Queen Elizabeth, † 96. In the past two years, the Royal Family had to do without due to the pandemic and the Queen’s health.
