In My Own Words

Kate: In Her Own Words

This programme tells the extraordinary story of how Catherine, Princess of Wales has transformed from a fledgling speechmaker into a public-speaking powerhouse, whose words now galvanise entire generations. Analysed in fascinating detail by body language experts, royal correspondents and journalists, we uncover the remarkable tale of how Kate went from an outsider to the royal family, to becoming one of their most prominent members, with an unflinching commitment to royal duty. We also dig deep into the influence Kate has had on the monarchy and how she has reshaped her role in her own image to make it fit for the modern world. We discover how Kate has handled the many challenges associated with her standing, such as press intrusion, public scrutiny, bereavement, mental health, family scandals and raising her children in the full glare of the world's media.
