The Princess of Wales’ fourth ‘Together at Christmas’ Carol Service provides a moment to reflect upon the importance of empathy, shining a light on individuals who have shown love and kindness to others in their communities.
It comes after Richard revealed he and his wife Judy sleep in separate beds last month.
The iconic duo first met back in the 80s while working at ITV Granada Television, before going on to tie the knot in 1986.
Appearing on Kate Thornton’s White Wine Question Time podcast, Richard made a candid confession about his and Judy’s longtime partnership.
Richard revealed that he sleeps in the spare room when he presents Good Morning Britain because he has to wake up in the middle of the night and doesn’t want to disrupt Judy’s sleep.
‘When I’m doing Good Morning Britain I sleep in the spare room,’ Richard admitted.
‘I do probably sleep a little bit better in bed with Judy but I’m okay on my own.’
Of the possibility of disrupting Judy’s sleep with the early wake-ups, he added: ‘I wouldn’t think of doing that to Judy.’

‘Apart from anything else, Judy and her sleep, you do not mess with.’
Richard and Judy recently reflected upon their relationship in their Channel 5 documentary, Our Best Bits – In Our Own Words, which aired in summer.
The pair spoke about the first time they met at Granada and the initial chemistry between them.
At the time Judy was wedded to journalist David Henshaw and Richard was in the midst of separating from his first wife Lynda.
Judy said: ‘I remember you coming into the newsroom on your first day, you were wearing a ridiculous sky blue suit… you just looked like a pr**.’
‘I was assigned as your minder, they had a system at Grenada that the newbie would be assigned a father or a mother to show them the ropes literally, and I was your mother.’
Reminiscing, Richard said: ‘I suddenly felt two hands on the back of my neck and I heard this voice saying ”I’m your mummy” and I turned around and it was this beautiful blonde. ‘
‘It seemed an off thing to say so I was like ”what??” So yeah she was my assigned mummy.’

Opening up about their first kiss the pair revealed it was after a working day in Blackpool in the back of a black cab.
‘We were filming in Blackpool, we spend a very long day filming promos, we really hit it off. We ended up getting a black cab, because the crew had gone, we went back to Manchester which was a good hours drive.’
‘It was in the darkness of the cab that we kind of fell for each other really, and kissed.’
The couple married and then welcomed children Jack and Chloe, while also carving out a successful presenting career together, fronting shows including This Morning and their very own teatime magazine show.
