Kate Middleton stepped out in London this week to continue her support of children and young people, by meeting with researchers who study the longterm affects trauma can have on the brain.
While visiting UCL’s Developmental Neuroscience Lab, Kate started to reminisce about her own college days, and per Hello! magazine, the duchess revealed a little known fact about herself. Apparently Kate told researchers, “I started off doing Psychology at St Andrews, with History of Art. It was a bit full on, but it was really interesting.”
According to The Telegraph, Professor Eamon McCrory raved about the royal after her visit saying, “The Duchess is fantastic. Her level of interest is extraordinary and she has a genuine interest and hunger to understand the science and really think about how the science can help us re-frame our approach to early years and help parents and families, and society to understand the critical importance of the first few years of life.”
Of course, Kate met Prince William while she was studying at St Andrews, and it’s interesting to hear that she studied other subjects before settling on History of Art.
Per Vanity Fair, Kate’s visit is a part of “a new campaign to help disadvantaged children in Britain” which the duchess will officially launch in 2019. As the publication reveals, “The duchess wants to see initiatives launched that will help families tackle anti-social behavior, addiction, and mental health.”
