Prince William has spoken candidly about the death of his mother, Princess Diana, describing his bereavement as a "pain like no other pain."
Speaking in an upcoming BBC documentary on mental health, William said that his time working as an air ambulance pilot gave him the impression that death was just "around the door," and the thoughts had become a problem until he spoke with someone.
William said the experience of loss brought him closer to "all those other people out there who have been bereaved," adding that "you can almost see [their loss] in their eyes."
"They want to talk about it, but they want you to go to first. They want you to say it's okay. They want to have your permission," William said.
He called for a change in how Britain approaches mental health: "We've got to relax a little bit and be able to talk about our emotions because we're not robots." [ Ссылка ]
