Kate Kane, Harry’s childhood sweetheart, is not some gold-digging dolly bird who came along for the money & fame. She was there long before the millions & the limelight. She’s his wife & mother to their 4 children. Real love, loyalty & commitment deserve respect, not ridicule.

Let us continue to pray together for peace. The day after tomorrow, on 27 October, let us join in spirit with the heads of churches and religious leaders who will gather in Assisi to mark the 40th anniversary of the meeting convened by Saint John Paul II. Never before has it been so clear that wars, as well as sowing death and destruction, impoverish and harm the world. May the Lord inspire choices of dialogue and peace! #PrayTogether
