00:00 Have you had any letters, cards from unexpected places, Kate?
00:05 Well, you know, I've had extraordinary things. I had the most beautiful letter
00:13 from David and Victoria Beckham. Handwritten, beautiful, very good handwriting, may I say,
00:22 very good handwriting. That was Darcy's observation. And also from the Royal Family, Catherine and
00:30 William sent a beautiful letter. And I know Catherine's been in hospital herself, so that
00:35 was lovely. And, you know, even the King, because there is somebody that knows about grief and also
00:42 knows about that sort of anticipatory grief where you know something has a risk of happening and
00:48 will maybe at one point inevitably happen, but how different it is when it does happen. And
00:54 I just, I'm not sure I'm allowed to say these things because I think you're sort of sworn
00:59 to secrecy, but I'm not going into too much detail. But I just think it was lovely of them
01:06 to reach out to me. But it's lovely to know that those people understand those emotions,
01:12 I think, for all of us. You know what I mean? It connects us all together.
01:17 And it's only because I work for GMB that they know who I am. But there will be people watching
01:23 that they don't know who they are, but they know the emotions. And I think that's lovely.
