After two years of the pandemic, royal tours are finally resuming, just in time for Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee! On the occasion of his 70 years of reign, his grandson William and his wife Kate Middleton will make an official trip to the Caribbean, to some of the member states of the Commonwealth. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will leave England on March 19, 2022 for Belize, then Jamaica and finally The Bahamas. A tour that will end on March 26.
Everything suggests that Prince William and Kate Middleton will make this one-week trip alone, without their three young children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis (8, 6 and 3 years old). As the magazine points out Hello!, the small tribe are expected to stay at their home in Kensington Palace, under the supervision of their longtime nanny, Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo. George and Charlotte will therefore be able to continue their education at Thomas’s Battersea School in London without interruption.
Little Louis therefore risks having to wait even longer before embarking on his first royal tour, unlike his elders. Her brother George was only 8 months old when he followed his parents to Australia and New Zealand in 2014. For her part, Princess Charlotte made her first trip abroad in 2016, discovering the Canada with dad, mom and George (see slideshow). But the youngest member of the British royal family to go on an official tour is Archie, the son of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who was just four months old when he left with his parents for South Africa in September 2019 Prince Louis and his siblings still discovered a foreign country together, Jordan, during a private vacation last year.
