Kate, Duchess of Cambridge, greets children and parents outside the Northside Center after her visit to New York on Monday. Kate and Prince William are on a three-day visit to the U.S., their first official visit since a 2011 trip to California.
NEW YORK – Britain’s Prince William sat down with President Barack Obama in Washington on Monday and unveiled an effort to curtail illegal wildlife trading while William’s wife, Kate, made an impression of a down-to-earth duchess on preschoolers and prominent British expats in New York.
In the first full – very full – day of the popular royal couple’s first visit to either place, William also spoke at a World Bank conference.
Kate wrapped Christmas gifts and helped children decorate picture frames while touring a child-development center with New York City’s first lady, then talked technology, theater and more with a British-success-story guest list at a lunch at the consul general’s home.
