A Letter from Clarence House

We were deeply honoured to receive a letter from Clarence House, written on behalf of Her Majesty The Queen, following the receipt of our book Playing with Fire, which my sister, Coleen, kindly sent to Her Majesty.

Dated 14th October 2025, the letter expresses appreciation for the book and acknowledges the work we continue to do in support of women facing adversity. It was both humbling and uplifting to read such thoughtful words, and to know that our efforts have resonated with someone who has shown lifelong dedication to championing women’s causes.

Receiving this message of encouragement from Clarence House is a profound honour. Playing with Fire was written to highlight resilience, courage and the power of shared experience. To have our work recognised in this way is both a privilege and an inspiration to continue supporting those whose voices deserve to be heard.

A portion of all sales from Playing with Fire is donated to Women’s Aid, a charity dedicated to supporting women and children affected by domestic abuse. It is a cause that remains deeply personal to us and we are proud that our book continues to help raise both awareness and vital funds for their important work.

We are deeply grateful for this gracious acknowledgement, which we will treasure always.
