Kate Middleton is not slowing down when it comes to her royal duties.
Kensington Palace announced on Twitter that the Duchess of Cambridge will visit St. Thomas' Hospital on Feb. 27. Middleton will officially launch the Nursing Now 2020 Campaign. This movement aims to raise the profile and status of nursing worldwide.
In addition, Middleton will also visit Royal College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists (RCOG) to learn the college's global health programs. The school aims to bring the best in women's health care.
Middleton is expecting her third baby with Prince William, but the Duchess' plate is full. On Feb. 18, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will attend the EE British Academy Film Awards ceremony at the Royal Albert Hall. Then, on Feb. 21, the royal couple will reunite again to visit Sunderland to officially open the music and arts hub at The Fire Station.
Earlier this month, Middleton and Prince William also went on a four-day Scandinavian tour. The Duke and Duchess made an official visit to Switzerland and Norway where they met the countries' leaders too.
Middleton and Prince William enjoyed bandy hockey in Switzerland. The British royals even challenged each other for a penalty shootout. Prince William won and Middleton came second after losing 2-1.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also attended a black-tie dinner with the Swedish royals. The gathering was hosted by Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel of Sweden. Among the guests in the said gathering was Alicia Vikander.
Vikander was seated between Prince Harry and Prime Minister Stefan Löfven. The "Tomb Raider" star confessed that she was too nervous to sip her water, but she struck a conversation with the Duke.
"Well, I've seen 'The Crown'. It was actually the first thing my friend and I started talking about with William. Apparently, he's a 'Game of Thrones' fan, I was told," Vikander told Norwegian talk show host Fredrik Skavlan.
On their visit to Norway, Prince William and Middleton joined King Harald and Queen Sonja at Norway's Royal Palace in Oslo for an official dinner. The hosts also gave the British royals assorted gifts.
The presents include sweaters for Prince William, Middleton, Prince George and Princess Charlotte. Queen Sonja and King Harald did not forget the upcoming royal baby too. There was a present for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's upcoming third child with a note that read, "For the Prince of Princess to come!"
