Princess of Wales shifts focus to children's mental health amid royal protocol change
Princess Catherine has shared a meaningful message just as Kensington Palace implements a surprising change regarding her future royal engagements.
On February 3, the Prince and Princess of Wales’ official Instagram account marked Children’s Mental Health Week by raising awareness about the importance of young people’s emotional well-being.
Their post, in collaboration with a charitable organisation, read: "#ChildrensMentalHealthWeek! We believe every child deserves the chance to thrive. This week, we’re focusing on helping young people explore the theme 'Know Yourself, Grow Yourself,' empowering them to better understand their emotions and build resilience."
Catherine’s statement comes shortly after The Times reported that Kensington Palace will no longer disclose details about her fashion choices. This change, made at the Princess’ request, aims to shift public attention toward her charitable work rather than her wardrobe.
The decision has sparked mixed reactions, with some royal fans expressing disappointment, while others praise Catherine for prioritising substance over style. The mother-of-three remains committed to ensuring the focus remains on the causes she champions, reinforcing her dedication to creating meaningful change.
