Kensington Palace called the two-day trip a high-level fact-finding mission as Kate seeks international collaboration for her early childhood center.

  • The Princess of Wales arrived in Reggio Emilia, Italy, on Wednesday for her first official visit to the country, marking her first major overseas trip since completing cancer treatment.

  • Kensington Palace described the two-day visit as a 'high-level fact-finding mission' and starting point for international collaboration, as the Princess looks to expand the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood globally.
