Kate Middleton has joined forces with an unlikely friend for a special reason
Kate Middleton is teaming up with a surprising star for a project that is close to her and husband Prince William's heart.
- Kate Middleton is chatting to Roman Kemp as part of her Shaping Us campaign.
- The Princess of Wales will be exploring early years and mental health with the radio and TV star.
- This royal news comes as Harry & Meghan director wished to explore monarchy’s ‘historical issues’ but Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wanted to tell ‘love story’, claims Liz Garbus.
Kate Middleton is teaming up with Roman Kemp to raise awareness to early years and mental health as she continues to develop her Shaping Us project.
The Princess of Wales launched the initiative earlier this week and visited some school children, making a hilariously sweet admission about her teddy bear.
And in a move to get more people talking about early years and also about mental health - a cause that is close to both her and husband Prince William's heart, Kate is introducing a series of initiatives that she hopes will get people talking.
Radio and TV host Roman Kemp is best placed for speaking about mental health as he previously revealed he considered suicide during a battle with depression.
And Kate revealed she would be speaking with him in more detail, she shared a snap of them together with the caption, "Talking early years and mental health with @romankemp. An important conversation on all things Shaping Us - coming tomorrow with @earlychildhood"
