A PICTURE of Princess Kate taken by six-year-old Prince Louis has been shared by the Princess to mark World Cancer Day.
The sweet image – showing Kate beaming in a forest in Windsor with her arms spread wide – was shared along with a sweet message about ‘what lies beyond the disease’.
A second image taken by the Princess showed leaves covered in frost.
Kate’s message read: “Don’t forget to nurture all that which lies beyond the disease. C”
It is the first ever image taken by Louis that has been released to the general public.
Kate is a keen amateur photographer who has previously shared photos of her children for significant celebrations.
Tagging the World Cancer Day account, the post has been shared just hours before the official day.
It follows the Princess joining families last week as she got stuck in with the brave children affected by the illness.
During her visit to a children’s hospice in Wales, the Princess of Wales visited Tŷ Hafan’s hospice in Sully, near Cardiff.
She spent time with children, families and staff.
The 43-year-old has been appointed as its new patron, a position previously held by Princess Diana in its fundraising stage.
It was also the Princess’ first engagement in wales since her diagnosis.
Kate played with eight children during the visit and was also pictured painting a hand print on the wall.
She spoke to four parents who have tragically lost children.
Walking into the room where children were entertained by a guitarist, she said: “This is very vibrant.”
Smiling Kate crouched down to speak to Dani-Rae, 3, and asked: “What do you like doing here? Are you having a good time? Are you singing songs?
She shook some maracas and asked: “Do you like playing any instruments?”
The first patronage Kate ever took on was East Anglia’s Children’s Hospice (EACH) and she maintains a close relationship with the organisation to this day.
