- Kate Middleton Visits Children’s Hospice With Close, Emotional Ties to King Charles and Princess Diana (newsbreak.com)
Princess Kate Middleton recently visited Tŷ Hafan Children’s Hospice in Sully, Wales, marking her first visit to the facility. She was also named the charity’s patron that day.
The hospice holds a special connection to the royal family, as King Charles served as patron since 2001. The late Princess Diana was also a patron during the hospice’s fundraising stages. Sadly, she passed away before it opened in 1999.
During her visit, Princess Kate spent time with children, families, and staff. The Princess of Wales has long championed childhood development, and this patronage aligns with her commitment. In 2021, she launched the Royal Foundation Center for Early Childhood, focusing on the importance of a child’s first five years.
This visit follows Princess Kate’s and Prince William’s meeting with Holocaust survivors for Holocaust Memorial Day.
The Princess is gradually returning to royal duties after announcing her cancer remission earlier this month. A royal historian commented on Princess Kate’s dedication to her duties, even during her illness, highlighting her grace and commitment. Sources suggest there is great public interest in her return.
