Prince Louis, the youngest child of the Prince and Princess of Wales, is following in his mother’s footsteps and developing a passion for photography. On February 3rd, in anticipation of World Cancer Day, Princess Kate shared a photo on social media, taken by none other than six-year-old Prince Louis. The image beautifully captures the Princess with outstretched arms amidst a lush, green Windsor woodland.
This recent photograph highlights Princess Kate’s deep appreciation for nature and its positive impact on well-being. As she stated in 2019, interacting with nature offers significant benefits for both mental and physical health.
Prince Louis isn’t the first royal to contribute to official social media through photography. Princess Kate, a self-proclaimed “enthusiastic amateur photographer” and patron of the Royal Photographic Society, has long held a keen interest in the art form. She frequently documents her children’s milestones, including birthdays, capturing cherished moments for the family album.

The World Cancer Day post also featured a close-up photograph of greenery taken by Princess Kate herself, accompanied by a poignant message: “Don’t forget to nurture all that which lies beyond the disease.” The ferns in the image symbolize endurance, resilience, and new beginnings, themes that resonate with Kate’s personal journey. She notably wore gold fern drop earrings during a visit to Southport in October, a community mourning the tragic loss of three young girls.
In March 2024, Princess Kate bravely announced her cancer diagnosis and subsequent treatment. She shared a hopeful update on January 14th, 2025, confirming her remission and expressing gratitude for the outpouring of support. This personal experience underscores the significance of her World Cancer Day message.

A source close to the royal family revealed the profound impact of Kate’s cancer journey, emphasizing the importance of family and a renewed perspective on life. The Princess’s resilience and unwavering focus on her husband and children serve as an inspiration.
