Queen Elizabeth offered a particularly personal message on Saturday for her annual Christmas Day address, her first since the death of her husband, Prince Philip. This year, especially, I understand why," the Queen said in the pre-recorded Christmas address from the White Drawing Room at Windsor Castle. In both the photo and her Christmas address, she was wearing the same sapphire chrysanthemum brooch. Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip attend The Patron's Lunch celebrations for the Queen's 90th birthday at The Mall in London in 2016. In her Christmas address, the Queen looked ahead to next year's Commonwealth Games and her Platinum Jubilee.
