Hello! relays the details shared about the the tour that is to take place early next year, noting that “The royals have been asked to undertake the Scandinavian visit on behalf of the Foreign Office,” and adding that William will take a solo journey to Finland next month.

The publication notes that the November trip William is embarking on was originally supposed to involve Duchess Kate as well. However, her severe sickness meant that the tour was postponed, leaving the original tour date as the solo adventure for the Prince.

Although Kate Middleton’s morning sickness will likely have subsided by early 2018, it’s clear that when she and Prince William do finally embark on their joint Scandinavian tour, Kate will be in her final trimester. Previous tours have seen the Duchess and Prince William head out on tour as a duo, and the pair have also taken their little ones Prince George and Princess Charlotte along on the past two trips.
