In the new book's forward, Prince Harry wrote that losing his mother at age 12 left 'a huge hole inside of me'.
LONDON: Britain's Prince Harry has written the forward for a new book aimed at the children of frontline workers who died in the COVID-19 pandemic, sharing the pain he suffered as a boy after the death of his mother, Princess Diana.
Harry wrote that losing his mother at age 12 left "a huge hole inside of me," according to excerpts of the book printed in the Times of London. Diana died in a Paris car accident in August 1997.
"Hospital by the Hill,'' by Chris Connaughton, is the story of a young person whose mother worked at a hospital and died during the pandemic. It is being given to children who have experienced similar losses.

"While I wish I was able to hug you right now, I hope this story is able to provide you comfort in knowing that you're not alone," Harry wrote in the forward. "When I was a young boy I lost my mum. At the time, I didn't want to believe it or accept it, and it left a huge hole inside of me. I know how you feel, and I want to assure you that over time that hole will be filled with so much love and support."
Harry has on several occasions reflected on the enduring pain he experienced from his mother's sudden death. He has made mental health awareness a key part of his charitable work.

"We all cope with loss in a different way, but when a parent goes to heaven, I was told their spirit, their love and the memories of them do not," Harry wrote. "They are always with you, and you can hold on to them forever. I find this to be true."
Princess Di's Style In 'The Crown', Suits From 'Peaky Blinders': Every Time Netflix & Amazon Prime Shows Influenced A Fashion Trend
1/9
In the absence of red carpets and ramp shows, we are taking style inspirations from over-the-top media services, says Sujata Assomull, fashion journalist and editor. Author of 100 Iconic Bollywood Costumes, Assomull says reel life has always played a huge role in setting trends. “Clothes are what make some of the shows bingeworthy,” she says.
For designers, too, it’s a platform to get noticed. Hemant Sagar, cofounder of Lecoanet Hemant, says,“OTT platforms are a great way for introducing young audiences to heritage fashion.”
Case in point: Shanaya Kapoor’s appearance in Lecoanet Hemant Couture in the Netflix show 'Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives' was noticed. Stylist Rishi Raj says it is a natural progression for the audience in terms of fashion consumption — from Bollywood to K soaps to OTT. And it goes beyond trends, he says, “These viewers have a lot of opinions to share and platforms to share it on. Now fashion is being looked at, discussed, given an opinion on.”
Here are shows that have set trends for quite some time to come.
