Liz Hatton's mother Vicky Robayna has reacted to Prince William and Kate Middleton’s emotional statement about her daughter, who died aged 17 earlier this week.

Liz died in the early hours of Tuesday morning after a battle with extremely aggressive form of cancer.

Kate Middleton and Prince William took to X, formerly Twitter handle and released an emotional statement to pay touching tribute to Liz.

They said, “We are so sorry to hear that Liz Hatton has sadly passed away. It was an honour to have met such a brave and humble young woman.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with Liz’s parents Vicky and Aaron and her brother Mateo at this unimaginably difficult time. W & C.”

Reacting to it, Vicky Robayna said, “Thank you, we are so very grateful to you both and all of your team for the kindness you have shown us all and the opportunities you made possible for Liz.

“Her last two months were the brightest of her life. You introduced the world to her work. We will always be immensely grateful to you for that xx.”

Liz Hatton made headlines after she was invited to Windsor Castle to photograph an investiture, where she found herself meeting Kate Middleton and Prince William last month.
