Catherine, Princess of Wales: She makes a touching promise
Sarah Renton, coach of the U14 team, presents Kate with earrings made in memory of her daughter Issy. Proceeds from the star-shaped earrings sold by Sarah’s cousin will be donated to the mental health charity Brave Minds. Issy lost her battle with depression and took her own life. A topic that touches the Princess of Wales very much. That’s why she promises to wear the earrings and warmly hugs the mother of the deceased teenager.

Kate’s heart project also revolves around mental health
Mental health is a big part of Kate’s heart project. The purpose of their “Shaping Us” campaign is, among other things, to support children and parents – with a special focus on early childhood. Aside from the training, the focus at this appointment was also on interpersonal relationships. Especially the warm embrace between Sarah Renton and the Princess of Wales is very intimate and touching.

If Kate wears the earrings at a public appearance in the near future, the charity organization is sure to make a lot of money. The so-called “Kate effect” not only helps large and small fashion houses to attract more attention, but can also make a big difference in matters of the heart.
