The Vancouver Sun, after raving about Catherine's recent appearences, gives us what's up and coming...
Up next:
The duchess is seen as such a gem that even the lofty in-laws are eager to appear with her at events that embody the role of working royals: unveiling plaques, visiting hospitals, supporting the arts and marking national celebrations.
•
March 1: Queen Elizabeth II, William’s grandmother who is celebrating 60 years on the throne this year, will be joined by Catherine and her stepmother-in-law, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, when the current and future queens take tea at the opening of a new restaurant in the venerable luxury department store Fortnum & Mason. They are scheduled to unveil a plaque at the London landmark, famous for its cavernous food hall, commemorating efforts to renovate the heretofore rundown Piccadilly Circus shopping district.
•
March 8: The duchess will travel to the English city of Leicester with the queen and her husband, Prince Philip, for one of the first of the national celebrations marking the queen’s Diamond Jubilee.
•
Later this year: She and Prince William will represent the queen at Diamond Jubilee celebrations in Singapore, Malaysia and the South Pacific.
