Under the candle's image, the mother of three penned: "Baby Loss Awareness Week signifies a significant moment to support those who've suffered the catastrophic loss of a child. I send love, strength, and optimism to everyone impacted." She appended the hashtag "#Wave of Light".

Baby Loss Awareness Week was initiated in the UK in 2002, beginning as Baby Loss Awareness Day, inspired by the Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day on October 15 in the USA. The organization aims to provide solace to grieving parents and families and increase awareness regarding pregnancy and infant losses. During the "Wave of Light", individuals worldwide are invited to kindle a candle for an hour at 7 pm to honor the babies who left too soon.
Princess William, evidently supportive of his wife's initiative, also shared Princess Kate's post on his social media platforms, expressing solidarity with those affected by child loss. Their collective efforts during Baby Loss Awareness Week underscored the importance of empathy and companionship in overcoming such a challenging experience.
As the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge continue their humanitarian work, Prince William's presence in supporting his wife's causes showcases their shared commitment to fostering compassion and hope in the face of adversity.
