A royal unit. As Princess Kate gave a somber address about Addiction Awareness Week in a new video, portraits of her family of five could be seen in the background.The Princess of Wales, 40, discussed the difficulties of the disease — and spoke about the importance of ending the stigma — as part of The Forward Trust’s “Taking Action on Addiction” campaign in a video posted on Sunday, October 30.

She was named a patron of the trust last year.“Addiction is a serious mental health condition that can happen to anyone, no matter what age, gender, race or nationality,” the princess remarked, noting she has met with many who suffer from the disease. “Attitudes to addiction are changing.

But we are not there yet, and we need to be. Still the shame of addiction is stopping people and families asking for help and people are still tragically losing their lives.

We as a society need to recognize that the only way to help those suffering is to try and understand what has led them to addiction, to empathize with them and to be compassionate to their struggles.”Amid Kate’s emotional speech, several sweet photos of her family could be seen on a table in the background.The England native, who shares 9-year-old son Prince George, 7-year-old daughter Princess Charlotte and 4-year-old son Prince Louis with husband Prince William, sat on a couch in front of the endearing pictures.The three photos, which were all individually framed, depicted the Wales family smiling in each snap.
