Prince William and Kate Middleton have released a new video accompanied by a powerful statement, following a touching tribute to a pizza seller who recently passed away.
In collaboration with the Earthshot Prize, the Prince and Princess of Wales shared a video highlighting their achievements and future plans. Alongside the heartwarming video, the couple wrote: "This is the real and tangible impact our @earthshotprize Finalists are creating for their communities and for the planet."
Their statement continued: "Since the very first #EarthshotPrize Awards in London in 2021, we have sought out groundbreaking innovations across the globe. Our goal is to discover solutions and accelerate their impact worldwide, so that we can repair and restore our planet. This is the decade we make a difference – together."
William and Kate also announced that the 2024 Earthshot Prize will take place in Cape Town, further underscoring their commitment to environmental causes.
Earlier in the day, the couple paid tribute to Peter Morris, the owner of the Little Dragon Pizza Van, whom they met during an outing in Wales last year. Morris, who recently passed away from cancer at the age of 47, was remembered in a heartfelt message from William and Kate: "We are deeply sorry to hear the very sad news about your husband, Pete, and we send you our deepest sympathies."
They added, "We can only begin to imagine what an immense hole he will leave in your life, and our hearts go out to you and your family. Catherine and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Pete."
