It’s been eight long years since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s triumphant first tour as a young family to Australia, when the nation collectively fell head over heels with the future leaders.
It was Prince George’s debut on the global stage, where, as a toothy eight-month-old he melted hearts while he met Aussie wildlife and had even the sternest politicians cooing. And now, Woman’s Day can exclusively reveal that, according to palace insiders, the Cambridges are in the late stages of planning a tour Down Under that will eclipse 2014’s 10-day extravaganza.
“This time, they want to spend even more time in Australia and perhaps even factor in a private family holiday,” says a source. “It goes without saying that Kate and Wills would never leave the children back in London and Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will all be along for the ride. They’re currently thinking April or May, given the weather will be just about perfect in most of the country for lots of outdoor, COVID-safe meetings.”
This comes after the Cambridges had originally planned to visit Oz in 2020 in the wake of the devastating January bushfires, with William particularly keen to travel to rural areas and visit with heroic firefighters, bereaved family members and survivors.
“William and Catherine instructed their team to make it happen, and it was looking like they’d get the green light from the Queen to come over in April of that year, but of course the pandemic hit and everything was taken off the table in terms of travel.”
