The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have arrived in the West Midlands for the first in a series of mental health-related engagements today.

Kate, 39, donned a polka dot blouse and black wide-leg trousers as she joined William, 38, at The Way Youth Zone in Wolverhampton, to learn more about the work the organisation does supporting children and young people.

Typically elegant, the Duchess of Cambridge accessorised the look with a simple clutch back, delicate gold drop earrings and a floral face mask. She finished the outfit with a navy blue coat and suede wedges. 

The outing comes as Prince Harry compared his life to ‘The Truman Show’ in an interview with Hollywood podcast host Dax Shepard. 

The 36-year-old, is currently living in his $14million Californian mansion with his wife and son, said he was born into extraordinary privilege but hinted that he believes this has changed since he quit with Meghan last year, saying: ‘You may start in one place but you can change in time’.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will carry out a number of engagements in the West Midlands today as part of their efforts to mark Mental Health Awareness Week. 

Tomorrow the couple will lead influential voices from around the world in the Mental Health Minute – a special message broadcast each year to over 20 million people across 500 radio stations.

The initiative, created by Radiocentre and Somethin’ Else, and delivered in partnership with The Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, will support Shout 85258, the UK’s first free, confidential, 24/7 text messaging support service. 

Shout was researched and developed by The Royal Foundation as a legacy of the Heads Together campaign and launched in May 2019 by The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and The Duke and Duchess of Sussex. 

The service provides round the clock support from clinical supervisors and trained volunteers to ensure that no one has to face their problems alone.
