The monarch’s consort took to social media to share a prose-style message titled The Year of the Bride, marking a shift in focus from public achievement to spiritual and personal renewal. In the post, she referenced a season of less striving and more surrender, expressing intentions to embrace rest and realignment in the year ahead.

“This is the year of the Bride,” she wrote. “Not in the earthly sense alone, but in the posture of spirit.” The message also included references to leadership, past responsibilities, and a reintroduction to identity and purpose beyond societal roles.

Throughout the text, Olori Atuwatse III offered a broader message to women, especially those in positions of responsibility, urging them to embrace seasons of restoration and to view rest as a necessary part of purpose.

The post also touched on Africa, drawing a metaphorical parallel between her personal theme and the continent’s potential for renewal. “And to Africa, my beloved, my burden, my joy, may you rise as Bride too,” she wrote.

The 39th birthday message accompanied a new set of regal photographs, styled to reflect her royal status while reinforcing the poetic undertones of the reflection.
