The Princess of Wales' brother has opened up about his mental health struggles and the help that his beloved spaniel Ella, who passed away earlier this year, gave him.

Kate's brother, who previously described depression as "a cancer of the mind", has spoken out ahead of Goodwoof dog festival in Chichester this weekend.
