Overview

• Kensington Palace released an eight-minute video showing William’s conversation in Wales with campaigner Rhian Mannings.
• Mannings recounts losing her one-year-old son in 2012, with her husband dying by suicide five days later.
• William urges people to speak up early about mental health, saying the best way to prevent suicide is to talk about it.
• The Royal Foundation says the National Suicide Prevention Network will bring together about 20 groups, including Mannings’ charity 2Wish, to improve understanding, access to support, and coordination across the U.K.
• The foundation sets initial funding at £1 million over three years, while some outlets also report a separate donation from William and Catherine of roughly $1.3 million over the same period.
