It was a privilege and an honor to have been one of the few to be introduced to Prince William and Princess Kate. They were incredibly kind, elegant and so very gracious. Getting an opportunity to meet and interact with them was a true pleasure and an experience i will always cherish. #hsy #royalvisitpakistan @theworldofhsy #princewilliam #princesskatemiddleton #pakistan

It was an honour to meet with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. While we discussed the work @zindagitrust has done in regards to child protection , I was sincerely glad to hear him emphasise on the importance of mental health and its access to all and sundry
