To have true empathy I do believe you have to have experienced something - you can have sympathy and feel for someone but to have the true definition of empathy you have to the ability to understand and share the feelings of another and if you haven't experienced true poverty how can you possibly understand what people go through trying to feed, clothe their families?

The publicity that Royals bring leads to a great surge in donations and offers of help. That’s the whole point.
