His Majesty's first festive address to the nation will take place at 3pm on Christmas Day.
Although the contents of the monarch's message are always kept secret until Christmas Day, the Archbishop told Sky News he would be surprised if thedid not allude to his own faith and that of others because he knows"this matters to people", despite recent reports about dwindling congregations and a decline in religious worship.
The Archbishop said:"On the ground, we know that faith and religion, and belief, matter to people and so if the monarch knows that this matters to people I think he will address it. "The King's language of blessing and Merry Christmas, his appreciation for the work of Christian communities and faith communities in the world, and the wider community at difficult times, it's all an indication that he's not shying away from faith.In recent weeks the Sussexes'documentary series and claims of racism at a palace event have increased scrutiny over how the Royal Family is addressing issues around diversity and inclusion.
Stressing the global anticipation around the King's first message, Archbishop Angaelos added:"I know that in his own mind His Majesty is going to be knowing we have an expectation, not just us as Britain or the Commonwealth but the whole world. "And so he will be constantly measuring up what that expectation is with what he wants to say, who he is and what he's going to present...and I am sure he will be very authentic to himself."
