Other royal analysts pointed to historical context, noting that Easter messages have rarely been issued by British monarchs.By Vered Weiss, World Israel NewsKing Charles III’s decision not to issue an Easter message this year has drawn criticism from some Christian observers in the United Kingdom, with royal commentators saying the move surprised many and raised questions about the monarch’s public messaging.Buckingham Palace said the absence of a message does not break with royal protocol, telling GB News that an Easter address is not a fixed annual tradition like the Christmas broadcast.Even so, some commentators said the decision stood out, particularly after the king publicly marked Ramadan earlier this year. In February, Charles shared a message wishing Muslims a “blessed and happy Ramadan” on social media.Royal commentator Neil Sean told Fox News Digital that the lack of an Easter message “came as a shock to most U.K. Christians.”“We expect a message from the Monarch,” Sean said.He added, “It’s not clear why he’s decided to not offer a message up, which is why the British people are angry… but more so when he made video contributions filmed inside Royal palaces for Eid and Ramadan.”Sean said the criticism has gone further in some quarters, with accusations emerging that Charles is a “secret Muslim.”Other royal analysts pointed to historical context, noting that Easter messages have rarely been issued by British monarchs. Richard Fitzwilliams told Fox News Digital that Queen Elizabeth II delivered just one such message, during the COVID pandemic.“Queen Elizabeth only gave one Easter message, during the COVID pandemic, which has justly become famous, as it was so beautifully crafted,” Fitzwilliams said. “The king did give an Easter message last year and a Royal Maundy message in 2024.”The royal household did acknowledge the holiday through its official Instagram account, posting an image of a cross alongside the message: “Happy Easter. He is risen!”The caption read: “Wishing you a joyous Easter Sunday to Christians celebrating in the UK, the Commonwealth and around the world today.”Ian Pelham Turner said the decision could spark unnecessary controversy, describing it as a move likely to generate backlash among some audiences.The post ‘Secret Muslim:’ King Charles blasted for giving Ramadan message while refusing same for Easter appeared first on World Israel News.
