Duchess Kate and Prince William have officially opened the Glade of Light Memorial in Manchester Today

Duchess Kate and Prince Wiliam have officially opened the Glade of Light Memorial


The Duke and Duchess attended the service taking place alongside the memorial where Prince William went on to make a short speech, in which he spoke of his own grief for his mother, Princess Diana.

Prince William said: 'As someone who lives with his own grief, I also know that what often matters most to the bereaved is that those we have lost are not forgotten. There is comfort in remembering. In acknowledging that, while taken horribly soon, they lived. They changed our lives. They were loved, and they are loved. It is why memorials such as the Glade of Light are so important. Why Catherine and I so wanted to be amongst you today.'  

The royal couple then took a short walk around the memorial garden, where Kate lay a bouquet of white and blue flowers.

Prince William and Kate went on to join a private reception inside Manchester Cathedral, where they spoke with some of the bereaved families and those involved in the response effort. Read more from The Daily Mail.
