Overview
- MMHA shared the Princess of Wales’ letter on Nov. 14, praising her support and saying it could help normalize conversations in early parenthood.
- Her message highlights 'This Is Also Motherhood,' a new Carolyn Mendelsohn–led exhibition at Phillips in London focused on lived perinatal mental-health experiences.
- The showcase centers on ten women whose portraits and letters explore challenges during pregnancy and the period after birth.
- The Princess wrote that perinatal mental-health problems can be overcome and emphasized that every parent's story matters.
- MMHA notes that about one in four women and one in ten fathers may face perinatal mental illness, and Kate’s recent social-media video message further amplified the campaign.
