Dear @markhamillofficial.bsky.social Huge fan. Full disclosure, I’ve never seen a Star Wars film. Beautiful baby giraffe. They’re in real trouble in the wild. Zoos = no solution. Would you be willing to help Born Free, (charity I founded by my parents (starred in 1966 movie)) turn the tide? Tx Will

Wonderful that her amazing story is being remembered and respected. Thank you for letting me know. Will

x.com/willtravers/... There are NO captive dolphin shows in the UK. There haven’t been for 30 years. They’re not missed. A tidal wave of change is coming - the show won’t go on. It will end. Humanely. Thanks @LeosAnimalPlan1 the French Government & all involved. @BornFreeFDN @whalesorg @BellaLack RT

I once had the enormous privilege to have tea with Audrey Hepburn, my mother Virginia, and four or five friends. This quote, attributed to her, is a perfect fit. We should all seek to find our inner AH. Wx

Me too. Cried for days
But it was the truth. My Mum was rejected for a Hitchcock film because he was traumatised by the end of RoBW!

Where it all started. I was 6 at the time. This story changed lives - including mine. Wx

Hello! Welcome to my Bluesky account. Thank you for taking a look. I am still on X, for now, but I will post on both. Looking forward to a kinder, more compassionate world. Willx
