Prince William is reminding military veterans and their families affected by suicide that they are not alone.

On April 17, Suicide Bereavement U.K. published At Your Side guides for veterans and families, serving as a resource for those bereaved by suicide during or after military service. The materials were commissioned by the National Health Service of England, and the Prince of Wales, 41, wrote the heartfelt opening.

Prince William concluded the message with the same words that Kate Middleton, 42, used during her emotional video address on March 22 revealing she was undergoing treatment for cancer.

“Please know that you are not alone,” William wrote, echoing his wife’s message to “all those whose lives have been affected by cancer” when she said, “You are not alone.”
