Kate Middleton and Prince William: Royal couple to meet young people from India and Bhutan ahead of official visit
They
are yet to touch down in South Asia but Duke and Duchess are already
doing the groundwork for their official trip to India to Bhutan later
this month. On Wednesday 6 April the couple will attend a London
reception where they will meet young people from India and Bhutan ahead
of their trip beginning on 10 April.
Kensington Palace
announced the function on Twitter, telling fans: "The event will allow
TRH the chance to learn more about the two countries ahead of their
upcoming tour #RoyalVisitIndia #RoyalVisitBhutan."
Although
no other details about the London function was disclosed, Prince George
and Princess Charlotte's parents have no problem interacting with
youths. Just last month they teamed up to check in on charity XLP-
a scheme which aims to help young people aged between 11 and 18
struggling at school and at risk of involvement in gang culture.
Meanwhile,
Will and Kate are expected to take in sights such as the iconic Taj
Mahal in Agra and Kaziringa National Park. They will also attend a
charity gala in their honour during four-day visit to India. They will
then head to Bhutan for two days, where they will meet its king and
queen, dubbed the "William and Kate of the Himalayas".
"The tour
will see The Duke and Duchess interact with people from all walks of
life, from people in very difficult circumstances, to aspiring and
established business leaders, well-known cultural figures, inspiring
conservationists, leading politicians, and of course other Royals.
"As
you can see this is going to be a hugely exciting and rewarding tour.
Their Royal Highnesses are very much looking forward to it," a
spokesperson said.
The Telegraph also reports that the Duchess
will showcase her style in an array of outfits from Indian and British
designers . A source said she has factored in the heat and taken "an
interest in paying tribute to the host country, with nods to their
culture and local style on at least a few of the engagements".

I believe that we were all sent here for a reason and that we all have significance in the world. I genuinely feel that we are all blessed with unique gifts. The expression of our gifts contributes to a cause greater than us.
