24.01.2022 Move over Meghan Markle there's new Make-A-Wish royalty in town! Priya has been clear on her wish from early the beginning of her wish experience, she wants to ...have a party at a beach with her favourite princesses. And a unicorn, too! We caught up with Priya's mum to hear how Priya was enjoying the anticipation phase of her journey. I think she just cant wait to be a princess. Its just a very intuitive thing with some girls, Priya's wish is going to come true next month and we're sure you'll agree, she's going to make a pretty perfect princess! If you'd like to help us make wishes like Priya's come true, visit our website to find out how https://bit.ly/2LZXDwz See more
