Britain's Catherine, Princess of Wales, on Tuesday visited a women's prison to meet ex-offenders and those still serving, as she continues her return to public duties having completed her cancer treatment.

After the visit, Amanda Taylor, Action for Children's Operational Director of Children's Services, spoke to People about Kate’s visit and said the princess was “very skilled” at making even the most nervous people comfortable. She told People: “She just naturally helped the women to feel relaxed.

In an extended interview with the Guardian, Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky says he will offer US firms lucrative reconstruction contracts to try to get Donald Trump onside with its war effort against Russia.

The Princess of Wales stressed the importance of mothers wellbeing as she met inmates at a mother and baby unit in Cheshire. Kate visited the unit, which is one of three in the North of England providing inmates with support from trained staff and early years practitioners in a separate living area.
