Well, Kate will embark on her next international tour with none other than her dearest husband, Prince William. Having paused all overseas tours during her cancer battle, the diva is gradually gaining back momentum, and next, she, along with William, will be visiting India for the 2026 Earthshot Prize awards ceremony. As per the Mirror, the event will be hosted in Mumbai, and the couple will also be visiting Delhi after the ceremony.

In a conversation with People, an insider revealed that while the tour is yet to be confirmed, given the “politically sensitive” situation there, the chances are positive. In a conversation with Mirror, another source added, “The Prince and Princess of Wales stand ready to assist the country however they can." They continued, "The plans are in the early stages, but it promises to be an amazing experience.” If at all the tour comes live, it will not be her and William's first visit to India, as previously in 2016, they visited several landmark locations of the country, including the Taj Mahal in Agra and Kaziranga National Park in Assam.

The cause of the tour is all the more special to both Kate and William, as this year marks the sixth year of the Earthshot Prize awards, and while Kate attended the first two awards ceremonies, in London in 2021 and Boston in 2022, she could not continue due to her cancer diagnosis. However, now that her cancer is in remission, the Princess is all ready to publicly support her husband in his vision to conserve the climate once again.
