Princess Kate shares emotional message on ‘complex motherhood’ for Mother’s Day
Princess of Wales has shared a new update on social media on Mother’s Day following this week’s garden party.
In a video shared on Instagram, the she reflected on her role as patron of the Maternal Mental Health Alliance, as Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week came to a close.
The caption read: “Proud to be Patron of the Maternal Mental Health Alliance. As Maternal Mental Health Awareness week draws to a close, it is importance to reflect on the experience of complex motherhood.
Thank you to Karen from the Maternal Mental Health Alliance, and Erica from Her Circle, Chair of the North East Council for Complex Motherhood. Such a pleasure to see you at this week’s Garden Party.”
In the video, representatives from the organisation introduced themselves and spoke openly about their work supporting mothers facing a range of challenges.
They explained the focus of their project, saying: “We are working on a project for women experiencing complex motherhood, which has been defined as women going through challenges such as childhood trauma, substance use, and poverty.
But at the end of the day, all mothers experience some form of complexity, with mental health, of course, being one of them.
We know that many giving birth will experience a health problem during or after.
It is common; lots of people are going through this, but help is available.
Talk to other women, and there are lots of organisations out there. There are positive things that can be done to make it better and to reduce the suffering.”

Justin Timberlake pays Mother’s Day tribute to “greatest women” in life
Justin Timberlake has marked Mother’s Day with a warm tribute to the two most important women in his life, his wife Jessica Biel and his mum Lynn Harless.
The 45-year-old singer took to Instagram on 10 May to share a handful of family photos, keeping his caption simple but sweet: “The greatest women I know. Happy Mother’s Day.”
The post gave fans a rare peek into his home life, featuring a shot of Justin alongside Jessica and their two sons, Silas, 11, and Phineas, 5, as well as a loved-up selfie of the couple together.
He also reached into the archives to honour his mum, posting a throwback photo of a young Justin sitting on the sofa with Lynn, both of them grinning, the kind of candid, unhurried moment that says more than any caption could.
Jessica, 44, clearly appreciated the gesture.
She reshared her husband’s post to her Instagram Stories and responded with three heart emojis, simple, but said everything.
The tribute is very much in keeping with how Timberlake has spoken about his wife in recent years.
Last Mother’s Day, he called Jessica “a superwoman who puts up with all the boys,” adding, “We love you so much.”
The year before that, he put together an Instagram Reel, set to his own song Mirrors a nice touch, featuring clips of Jessica and their life at home, with the caption: “You do it ALL. We love you so much.”
The pair, who married in 2012, marked their 15th wedding anniversary last October, and by all accounts the affection runs both ways.
When Justin turned 45 in January, Jessica pulled out all the stops.
“I tried to spoil him,” she told Extra. “We filled the house with flowers and the kids made cards and we had a nice dinner with friends. It was perfect.”
Thirteen years of marriage, two kids, and they’re still writing each other love notes on the internet. Not bad at all.

Pakistan embassy in Washington commemorates Marka-e-Haq anniversary, honours national unity
The Pakistan Embassy in Washington hosted a grand ceremony to commemorate the first anniversary of Marka-e-Haq — a testament of historical significance to Pakistan’s unity, resilience, and unwavering national resolve.
The ceremony was attended by a large number of participants, including members of the Pakistani-American diaspora, scholars, students, business leaders, embassy officials, and media representatives.
Members of the Pakistani-American community participated enthusiastically, reaffirming their deep love for and commitment to the homeland as well as solidarity with the nation. Patriotic songs and spirited chants of “Pakistan Zindabad” filled the atmosphere, reflecting renewed national pride, unity, and collective resolve.
The ceremony paid rich tribute to the brave men and women of Pakistan’s Armed Forces for safeguarding the country’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, and national dignity with exemplary professionalism and courage. The civil and military leadership was also commended for its decisive stewardship during a critical period for the nation.
Messages from the President Zardari and the Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif were read out on the occasion, while video messages from the Deputy Prime Minister and the Defence Minister reiterated Pakistan’s steadfast commitment to defending the homeland at all costs.

Defence Attache Brigadier Irfan Ali read out the message from the Chief of Defence Forces/Chief of Army Staff, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir.
Addressing the gathering, Pakistan’s Ambassador to the United States, Rizwan Saeed Sheikh, highlighted the significance of Marka-e-Haq and the collective resolve demonstrated by the Pakistani nation. He emphasised that Pakistan’s strategic importance, resilience, and role in promoting regional and global peace continued to gain strength.
“Our unity is our strength, and it was displayed during the conflict in May 2025. The nation stood shoulder to shoulder with its leadership and the valiant armed forces in defeating the sinister designs of the enemy,” the Ambassador remarked.
The ambassador noted that the victory against provocation was a collective triumph led by the country’s civil-military and diplomatic leadership. He underscored that while Pakistan remained committed to regional and global peace, the desire should never be mistaken for weakness.
He appreciated the positive role played by the US President Donald Trump in supporting ceasefire efforts between the two nuclear powers.
Looking toward the future, the ambassador linked national defence with economic sovereignty, stating that the concept of Bunyan-um-Marsoos would be fully realised in the non-kinetic domain once Pakistan achieved economic stability and prosperity.
He urged the Pakistani American diaspora to step in and step up their vital role geared to strengthening the bilateral relationship between Pakistan and the United States.
The evening featured a documentary chronicling the nation’s defence efforts and live performances of national songs, adding further spirit to the evening, with audiences passionately chanting slogans of “Pakistan Hamesha Zindabad.”
The ceremony concluded with a renewed national pledge for unity, progress and collective responsibility toward building a stronger and more prosperous Pakistan.
