Prince William and Kate Middleton, most of the time, complete their royal obligations together. Even if the duty only requires the Duke of Cambridge to be present, his wife would come along with him for support.
However, Kate Middleton will be going solo in the big state banquet and reception at Buckingham Palace on December 3. The Duchess of Cambridge will also be the only one to look after her and Prince William’s three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. So, where is the Duke of Cambridge?
Prince William is set to go on a royal tour to Kuwait and Oman on his own from December 1 to 4. The Duke of Cambridge’s solo endeavor is a response to a request by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to visit the Middle Eastern states.
As for next week’s state banquet, which marks the 70th anniversary of the military alliance, Queen Elizabeth will be hosting the reception for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) leaders and their partners. NATO was formed in 1949, and it has now 29 member states from North America and Europe.
Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, the Earl of Wessex, the Princess Royal, the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester and Princess Alexandra will represent the Royal family at the event. However, Prince Andrew is not on the guest list.
Among the attendees are US President Donald Trump and his wife, Melania Trump. This is not the first time the couple visited Buckingham Palace as Her Majesty hosted a special reception for the Trumps back in June.
Meanwhile, Kate Middleton may have a hard time dealing with her three young children, as many believe that she is pregnant with her fourth child. The Duchess of Cambridge is known for having a tough time during her pregnancies, so she will have her hands full when Prince William jets off to Kuwait and Oman.
Previous reports claimed that Kate Middleton is set to give birth next spring. Royal fans are not only convinced that the Duchess of Cambridge is pregnant, but they now claim that they know when she will be due.
However, some royal fans pointed out that Kate Middleton’s stomach area is still very tiny. If she is due next spring, then she would have been in her third month of pregnancy right now, but there is no sign of it at all.
