Princess shares personal message and unseen moments as new project celebrates healing through nature
Catherine has made a joyful return to the spotlight with the launch of her deeply personal new project titled Mother Nature, revealed in a moving video released by Kensington Palace.
In the three-minute short film called Spring, the Princess of Wales opened up about how reconnecting with nature played a vital role in her emotional recovery following her cancer diagnosis. The video, which also features Prince William, includes previously unseen, heartwarming clips from the couple’s anniversary visit to the Isles of Mull.
As part of Mother Nature, the Spring film marks the first of a four-part series. Additional segments—Summer, Autumn, and Winter—will be released over the coming months across Kensington Palace's social media channels.
Accompanying the video, Catherine shared a powerful message:
“This year’s Mental Health Awareness Week, we are celebrating humanity’s longstanding connection to nature, and its capacity to inspire us and help us to heal and grow in mind, body and spirit.”
She continued, “The Mother Nature series is a reminder and reflection of the beauty and complexity of the human experience... a tribute to the lessons we can learn from nature, helping us to foster our own growth, strengthen our bonds with the world around us and each other. C.”
Catherine first announced her cancer diagnosis in March 2024, later undergoing preventative chemotherapy. In January 2025, she confirmed she was in remission and has since been gradually resuming her royal duties.
The new series not only highlights her personal journey of resilience but also underlines her enduring commitment to mental health advocacy and the healing power of nature.
