Princess Kate Middleton’s latest project amid her cancer battle is all about her passion for nature.
The Princess of Wales, 43, announced the launch of her new video series “Mother Nature” by sharing a sweet video of herself and Prince William enjoying time together in the picturesque outdoors.
“Over the past year, nature has been my sanctuary. The natural world’s capacity to inspire us, to nurture us and help us heal and grow is boundless and has been understood for generations,” Kate said via voiceover in the clip, which was shared via her and William’s social media platforms on Monday, May 12. “It is through nature, that we can fully understand the true interconnectedness of all things, the importance of balance and the importance of renewal and resilience. Connecting to nature helps us to experience a deeper sense of ourselves, the world around us and each other.”
She continued, “Spring is a season of rebirth, of hope and new beginnings. From the dark days of winter, the outside world quietly awakens with new life, and there comes a sense of optimism, anticipation and positive, hopeful change. Just as nature revives and renews, so too can we.”

Kate shared more details about her new project and “the importance of the connection between humanity and nature” in the post’s caption. “The Mother Nature series is a reminder and reflection of the beauty and complexity of the human experience,” she wrote. “It is 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.
