The Prince and Princess of Wales recently met 16-year-old Liz Hatton, who has been battling a rare form of cancer. Hatton's bucket list documented her journey through treatment, and meeting the royal couple was a moment she never expected.
It is in the gift of royalty to create magical, once in a lifetime moments – and that’s exactly what the Prince and Princess of Wales did when they met 16-year-old Liz Hatton. In her first engagement since the news that she had finished her chemotherapy treatment, Kate, 42, was pictured hugging aspiring photographer Liz who has documented her progress in the form of a bucket list as she bravely battles a rare and aggressive form of cancer.
On the moment she heard that her project had reached the attention of the Royal Family, Liz explained, “My mum told me that someone from the Air Ambulance crew had contacted the palace and was trying to arrange something. But at that point I was completely convinced that absolutely nothing would come of it because I am just some random girl from North Yorkshire and they’re the Royal Family.
Right at the heart of her project is her love of taking pictures – something Kate shares and something which has thoroughly endeared her to the public. As well as releasing several images over the years of her family to mark anniversaries and birthdays, the Princess – who serves as the Patron for the Royal Photographic Society – launched the Hold Still campaign during lockdown and also took portraits of Queen Camilla to mark her 75th birthday for Country Life Magazine.
Beyond making a dream come true for Liz, the engagement also provided the opportunity to see the Princess of Wales for the first time since the news that her chemotherapy treatment had come to an end was released.
