They also graced a reception at the Guinness Storehouse and visited mental health centers for the youth.
Interestingly, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge made the Scotland tour announcement on the third wedding anniversary of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. It even fell on the same day Princess Beatrice revealed that she is pregnant with her first child with Edoardo Mapelli-Mozzi.
