Royal Couple warms people's hearts after this gesture towards young talent
- Replies 0
In a world where stories of conflict and controversy often dominate news channels, hearing about acts of kindness is a breath of fresh air.
These light-hearted stories remind everyone that there is still good in humanity.
This time, two influential figures recently became the subject of such a story—one that has endeared them more to the hearts of people across the world.
Last Monday, 10 March, The Prince and Princess of Wales had been offering ongoing support to the family of a young creative.
Prince William and Princess Catherine paid tribute to photographer Liz Hatton.
Unfortunately, the 17-year-old Hatton tragically passed away last November.
The Royal Couple celebrated Liz's life and works in a touching tribute for International Women's Day.
Among the eleven inspiring women featured on this year's tribute, Hatton was one of the featured women.
The Royal Couple's decision to include Hatton was more than just a recognition of her talent.
It also became a poignant acknowledgement of her life just months after they met her at Windsor Castle.
While Liz Hatton's family continues to navigate the turbulent waters of grief, they expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the Prince and Princess of Wales for their kindness and support.
Liz's mother, Vicky Robayna, and her brother, Mateo, shared their experience with the Royal Couple in an interview.
'Their kindness has meant the world to us,' Vicky shared.
Mateo, despite his young age, spoke of their impact during a difficult time.
'They have reached out to us a lot since we met them,' the young boy shared.
'They have helped us do all of the things we've done since then, we wouldn't have had those last 12 weeks without them.'
The Royal Couple's thoughtful gestures comforted Liz Hatton's family while they went through grief.
Vicky recounted how Princess Catherine and her team remained in regular contact and offered support to the family.
Before her passing, Liz was invited to the Windsor Castle to take photos during Investiture Day.
Last Christmas, The Prince and Princess of Wales invited Liz Hatton's family to a Carol Concert in December, shortly after her passing.
'They've been incredible, really, really incredible,' Vicky emphasised.

The support the Prince and Princess of Wales provided amplified Liz's story even after her passing.
'We are well aware that without their support during those last 12 weeks of Liz's life, and the media taking up her story in the way that they did, she wouldn't have had anywhere near the incredible amount of opportunities that she had,' Vicky stated.
The Royal Couple's International Women's Day tribute, which included Liz, moved her family.
Vicky was 'absolutely stunned' that Liz's memory continues to be recognised and celebrated.
The Prince and Princess of Wales' story of compassion was a testament to their commitment to their engagements with the public.
It's a reminder that amidst their duties and responsibilities, they take the time to connect with their constituents, offering support and recognition in times of need.
