In their FaceTime call, The Duke and Lady Gaga discussed how opening up and having conversations about mental health is vital to ending the stigma that still surrounds these issues. Lady Gaga said she felt people with mental health challenges were 'not hiding anymore' and the The Duke added that it is time 'to feel normal about mental health – it's the same as physical health' and that good conversations can 'really make such a difference.'
