“The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s charity has been officially renamed, removing the Duke and Duchess of Sussex from the title.”
“Documents published by Companies House on Tuesday show William and Kate’s foundation is now “The Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge”.

The Duke of Cambridge has visited Hendon Football Club in his capacity as President of the Football Association.
His Royal Highness learned more about the club’s mental health outreach initiatives.
The royal visit was part of Heads Up, a new season-long campaign which aims to harness the power of football to encourage more people to talk about their mental health.

I certainly don't know why some actors, writers, directors, etc support certain causes. I imagine most of them, just as those of us not in the public eye, have their own reasons for the causes to which they contribute time or money. And certainly a high profile public figure is going to bring more attention to a cause than I could.

He’s a celebrity film maker. I just have to have a laugh at folks making it seem like it’s wrong the royals are friends with and work with famous people for charitable interest. They’ve been doing this for decades and won’t stop now.

How awful for Richard's family. I'm so sorry that they experienced this tragedy but this does explain his involvement in mental health charity work.

Richard Curtis has revealed his sister committed suicide following a 25-year battle with psychological illness, as he said society was “failing” to focus properly on mental health. The screenwriter behind Love Actually and Notting Hill said his sister took her own life the day before a planned party for her, adding he believed his family “couldn’t have done anything more right”.

How is he a celebrity film maker? He makes films with celebrities in yes. But if you walk down the high street and ask the everyday man who Richard Curtis is they wouldn’t have the foggiest idea.

He is actually better known as a writer and producer, he has far more film and TV writing/producing credits than directing. Yes, most people wouldn't recognize his face, but some would recognize his name.

He’s a co-founder of Comic Relief which has raised over £1 billion for charity.
I can’t wait for his collaboration with the Cambridges.

I think the collaboration is great. I can understand the hypocrisy over the fact they working with an entertainment industry person after the groaning over *others* but I think this is a positive thing. I do wonder of they will be involved with Comic Relief in some way.

There is a huge difference between royals working with celebrities for charitable initiatives, and celebrities giving interviews about their royal "friends." The only reason we know about this meeting is because it was announced.
It doesn't matter if royals have celebrities as friends, what draws comment is when those celebrities seem to be leveraging that relationship in some way.
