Catherine, Princess of Wales is "sending love, strength and hope" to those affected by baby loss.
The 42-year-old royal - who is married to Prince William and has Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and six-year-old Prince Louis with him - returned to official duties last week and on Tuesday (15.10.24) spoke out on the final night of Baby Loss Awareness Week to send her support to those who had suffered a miscarriage or a stillbirth.
A statement released by Kensington Palace read: "Baby Loss Awareness Week is such an important moment to support those who have experienced the devastation of baby loss.
Sending love, strength and hope to anyone affected. #WaveofLight

Alongside the post, there was an image of a lit candle, and several other users took to social media to do the same as they marked the poignant occasion.
The Princess of Wales took a break from royal duties in March, when she revealed that she had begun “preventative” chemotherapy for cancer.
Catherine told the world she was “cancer free” in a statement released on 9 September, and has recently marked her journey back to public life by hosting a 16 year old called Liz at Windsor Castle.
A picture posted on the royal couple’s Instagram page showed the aspiring photographer teen hugging Catherine – with a second image showing the princess and William standing alongside Liz, who is from Harrogate, and her family, including her mother Vicky Roboyna, stepfather Aaron and brother Mateo.
The caption on the photos said: “A pleasure to meet with Liz at Windsor today.
“A talented young photographer whose creativity and strength has inspired us both.
“Thank you for sharing your photos and story with us. W and C.”
