Kate Middleton stepped out wearing a bright red blazer during her visit to Denmark. The Duchess of Cambridge arrived in Copenhagen earlier today for a two-day tour – her first official royal trip in three years because of the pandemic. 

Kate was in Denmark to “focus on early years and childhood development, and to see how the Danish way of doing things works so well”. 

The first stop on her visit was at The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood. 

The Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood aims to drive awareness of and action on the impact of the early years in a child’s development. 

This visit is an opportunity for Kate to learn from Danish experts about children’s learning and development who are world leaders in the field.

During her visit to Denmark, the Duchess will be received by Queen Margrethe II, 81, who is celebrating her Golden Jubilee this year, and will carry out an engagement with Australian-born Crown Princess Mary, 49.    

The trip will also pay tribute to the historic ties between Britain and Denmark and will celebrate the joint Jubilees taking place in each country this year: the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II, marking 70 years on the British throne, and the Golden Jubilee of Margrethe II, making 50 years on the Danish throne.
