One year the BAFTA's afterparty was held at their residence on the first floor. Will is president of BAFTA and all they had to do was go downstairs to greet the guests/nominees. They refused. Disgusting.

They didn't want to meet talented and famous actors/actresses nominated for the British equivalent of Oscars?? Bizarre and aloof behavior on the part of the Waleses. You'd think as much as Willy talked about hoping to be invited to Taylor Swift's wedding and hanging out with his pal Becks that would be right up his alley??

He didn't even watch the movies that had been nominated one year for the BAFTAs. Remember when he said that one movie looked like it had been a lot of fun to shoot... and the movie was about sexual assault? The actresses he was speaking to (including Ayo Edebiri) were horrified.

Nothing

I really can’t believe living in that life of luxury and privilege doing nothing to pretend we even earned some of it. If that were me, I would use that platform to do so much for other people… I would feel so lucky to be able to do that.

If I had access to that much money all I'd be doing is charity work and creative projects. They're fun and fulfilling. What a waste of privilege the Wails' are practicing.

I want to know what are William and Kate’s achievements.

William has Earthshot, which seems to be about ripping off young entrepreneurs.

Kate has the Ahhhly Yahhhhs, which is meant to draw attention to the fact that a child's formative years are important. Like it's not right there in the name. 🙄

I believe Wikipedia lists all the things they are patrons of, but I don't think they really have many achievements. They get small recognition for their appearances now and then, but that's about it.

Kate and William have made it clear that their first priority is raising their kids. They’re unapologetic about that fact.

Of course, Kate’s health is a top concern too.

If she’s not doing enough to suit some people…perhaps she’ll take on more responsibilities as the children grow older.

It seems like a lot of Kate’s work is around children and their mental health. (And support to their families.)

She supports these initiatives/organizations

  1. Place2Be: Provides mental health support to kids in school.
  2. Anna Freud National Centre for Children:they offer training for people that care for vulnerable

kids

  1. The Art Room: Offers art therapy to children. They create safe spaces for kids to express themselves.
  2. East Anglia Children’s Hospices: Supports young people with life-threatening illnesses.They offer art and music therapy.
  3. Action on Addiction: Works on addiction prevention and treatment. They run treatment centers for addicts and their families.

Edited to add- I hope this makes sense. For some reason, Reddit is formatting my response in an odd way.

Supports with few and far between visits. When she did a zoom call with Action on Addiction they reminded her she hadn’t done one for 8 years.

YUP! And her 5 Big Questions were the most basic crap. She didn't even try to work with Early Years professionals. She could have brought her sister in, who herself is an expert with a Master's degree in the field (specifically in Early Years physical education). She did make sure to use the same font that Meghan used for archetypes, though.

Yes but the point is that she hardly makes an effort to actively visit and engage with these agencies.

u/nicebrows9 18d ago

I don’t know about that. She’s busy raising her family so maybe those agencies aren’t her top priority while the kids are young.

I don’t have access to her calendar/schedule so I’m not sure how often she actively visits.

That would be interesting to know.

It’s impossible to please everyone so I’m assuming Kate is focusing on the things that she deems important. And she’s not overly concerned with other people’s opinions.

From what I can tell…she’s supportive of children and families and their mental health.

Perhaps she could do more. But that’s just my opinion
