Kensington Palace has confirmed that Princess Kate will travel outside England next week
LONDON (Web Desk) - The Princess of Wales has fully resumed her royal duties with renewed determination and a noticeably warm, people-first approach following her recovery, winning fresh admiration from the public.
Kensington Palace has confirmed that Princess Kate will travel outside England next week for an official royal engagement, marking another milestone in her gradual return to public life.
The announcement came just a day after the Princess of Wales was unable to attend Windsor Castle’s first-ever film premiere, held for a special documentary hosted by King Charles III and Queen Camilla.
During the upcoming visit, Catherine will tour textile producers across Carmarthenshire, Suffolk, Kent and County Tyrone, highlighting the regions’ rich traditions of craftsmanship and creative excellence.
The engagement reflects her long-standing commitment to supporting Britain’s textile industry and underscoring its importance to the nation’s cultural and creative identity.
The visit builds on a series of royal engagements focused on the sector, following her recent trip to a tartan-weaving studio in Scotland earlier this month.
The Princess’s connection to the trade is also deeply personal. Her paternal ancestors once owned William Lupton & Co, a Leeds-based woollen merchant and manufacturing firm, giving her family ties to the industry that span generations.
Alongside her work promoting heritage crafts, Princess Kate has continued to champion mental health and wellbeing initiatives.
She recently joined the charity Mind Over Mountains for a guided walk in the Peak District, where she observed how nature, mindful movement and professional mental health support can work together to restore and sustain wellbeing.
With a renewed sense of purpose and a focus on connection, the Princess of Wales is once again stepping confidently into her public role—strengthening her position as one of the most admired members of the Royal Family.
