Liz Hatton, a 17-year-old photographer battling a rare incurable cancer, has lost her battle with the disease. She inspired Kate Middleton by pursuing a bucket list of photography goals, including meeting the Princess of Wales and shooting behind the scenes at Windsor Castle.
A terminally ill teen photographer who inspired Kate Middleton after pursuing a photography bucket list has sadly lost her battle with cancer.
She stated: "Our lovely Liz died in the early hours of this morning. She remained determined to her last. Even yesterday she was telling me that I had better get nurses sorted so she could do more things. She went out in a blaze of glory with almost everyone she cared about seeing her for the last time at her exhibition last week."
Last month Liz was invited to work alongside press photographers at the premiere of Venom: The Last Dance. She was even snapping away on the red carpet of the Royal Variety Show last Friday. Ms Robayna offered her thanks to those who helped the teenager fulfil her dreams in her final months and those who liked and supported her work, adding: “You ensured Liz’s last two months were her very best. She flew high until the end.
Kate, who herself was treated for cancer this year, and William, in a personal message earlier in the autumn, described Liz as a “talented young photographer whose creativity and strength has inspired us both”. Liz was joined at the Windsor Castle investiture by her mother, stepfather Aaron and brother Mateo.
Liz fulfilled what her mother described as her “biggest wish”, spending two days with Los Angeles-based portrait photographer David Suh, who flew from the US to work with her. Her project culminated in her own photography exhibition in London this month, showcasing her work.
