This Princess Catherine Moment Just Broke the Internet!

Have you seen this amazing clip of Catherine the Princess of Wales during her hike up Ben Nevis while completing her three peaks challenge this weekend where she greeted and encouraged a young boy who had been wheeled up to the top three mountains to raise funds for a charity. An absolutely lovely moment for you. I'll play it for you now with the audio on and then we'll talk a bit more about Catherine's amazing challenge that she's completed. Here it is. How are you doing Ted? You're not too cold? It's not great weather is it? No, it's only because I'm still in my t-shirt. I hate doing this. Are you sick? Do you have your mask on today? I don't know. Have you got any? I don't know. Fantastic. And have you been up here before? No. It's your third time? You're in a cloud Ted, aren't you? Yeah, exactly. I'm so proud to have made it to the second peak. People will love you. We'll be cheering you on. We will see you on Snowdon. Good luck. Isn't that wonderful? Now Catherine put out quite a long statement actually after the completion of this three peaks challenge and she was doing it in aid of the hospital where she was treated for cancer describing it as a chance to explore life beyond diagnosis and to give something back. Now the three peaks challenge as I'm sure many of you will know involves climbing the highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales over one day 24 hours to raise funds for your chosen charity and Catherine also shared a minute-long video sharing her reasons for completing the three peaks and then I'll go over her written statement as well so here's that video. Lots of people have asked me why I'm doing this challenge and partly it's personal. I'm so grateful to be here, to be strong enough to walk these hills but more importantly it's to give something back and acknowledge really all the incredible work going on up and down this country. I've met some incredible people, those people who are living with and beyond cancer and I know personally how difficult that journey is and I really wanted to use this opportunity as my way of contributing to all the wonderful work that's going on and in particular to support the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, an organisation very dear to me but who do extraordinary work supporting those living with and beyond the disease. In her written statement Catherine said quote every year hundreds of thousands of people in this country hear the words no one wants to hear. What follows is a path that tests every part of who we are physically, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually. The challenges ripple outwards touching families, friendships, work and the quiet moments we spend alone with our thoughts. Cancer doesn't just affect the body, it changes how you think and feel and profoundly affects every aspect of life. I know this personally and that the journey through and beyond treatment requires more than medicine alone. I've taken on the National Three Peaks Challenge not simply as a physical endeavour but as a chance to explore life beyond diagnosis and to give something back. The Royal Marsden which is the hospital she was treated at is a place that holds great meaning for me and whose care and expertise are life-changing for so many people. Through this challenge I want to raise awareness for the deeper impact of serious illness and the importance of holistic healthcare. Every individual is different and ensuring there is a whole person approach to care enables those living through cancer to manage the deeply personal challenge of diagnosis. Holistic therapies complement clinical pathways and support patients ability to maintain their wellbeing, resilience and quality of life during an exceptionally difficult time. We have an opportunity to reshape what the future of holistic cancer care looks like, enabling more people nationwide to access the kind of personalised support that can help make a meaningful difference during and after medical treatment. This challenge will support the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, helping to transform access to and understanding of holistic care that will enhance recovery and healing for patients across the UK. Healing, whether personal or collective, is not just about fixing what is wrong, it's about finding balance in how we live, between effort and acceptance, control and trust, between thinking and simply being. Because in the end, bravery isn't just about pushing forward, it's about knowing how to stay grounded, connected and present, no matter the terrain or landscape you are walking through. Together, we can stand alongside everyone navigating life with cancer, ensuring no one faces this disease feeling unseen or unsupported. Please know, you are not alone.
