Kate Middleton Set To Join Prince William On Next Tour Despite Postnatal Depression Claims
A foreign tour is being planned for both Prince William and Kate Middleton, with the pair’s travels to reportedly commence in 6 months time, if all remains on schedule. However, don’t plan on seeing little George or baby Charlotte in the arms of the royal couple during their travels, as it has been reported that Kate and William will be embarking on the upcoming tour without their little ones.
People relays that it’s unlikely that the wee Prince and Princess will be seen on any upcoming tours in the near future. As to the the exact locations which the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will visit, the publication notes that no specific details have been made known.
“With the couple already having visited Canada, Los Angeles, New York, Southeast Asia and Australia and New Zealand, speculation for their next move has included a trip to the Caribbean. But there is no decision yet on the timing or place.”
Will and Kate have not been taking on too many royal duties as of late, with Kate attending to her baby and toddler at home, and William becoming accustomed to his new post as an air ambulance pilot, the duo is certainly easing back into their role within the royal family. The absenteeism of Kate on numerous occasions, such as a recent wedding of friend, within which her sister Pippa had to stand in as William’s date, began to spark reports of postnatal difficulties. The Daily Beast shares about the speculation that has arisen due to Middleton’s lack of attendance at the event, additionally quoting the words of diarist Sebastian Shakespeare.
“The hosts appeared to have been informed so late that Kate’s name was still on the seating plan at the reception in a marquee overlooking the village green. [A guest informed that] everyone was talking about it over breakfast the next morning.”
Claims that reasons for Kate being absent from such occasions have to do with the Duchess experiencing postnatal depression are being stamped out as falsities. It has been verified that Middleton is not fully ready to return to active duty and will not partake in the tour with William until she is at full preparedness. The publication offers details relayed by a source who is in the know as to the royal engagements.
“There is nothing in her official diary now, but sources tell the Royalist that Kate’s strategy is to very slowly build up the number of engagements to which she is committed throughout the autumn.”
