Kate Middleton is planning her first overseas working trip since announcing her cancer diagnosis — a focused, two-day visit to Reggio Emilia to explore a celebrated approach to early childhood education. Read on to discover the full story!

Italy visit: research, not pomp

The Princess of Wales will travel to Reggio Emilia from May 13–14, a fact-finding mission tied to her Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood. At 44, Kate returns to international work after stepping back for treatment in 2024 and resuming a fuller schedule following her announcement of remission in early 2025. Kensington Palace says she will meet educators, parents, children and local leaders to see the Reggio Emilia model in practice.
