Kate Middleton, Prince William's plans for 2026 disclosed

As Princess of Wales Kate Middleton has been making her way steadily back to work after cancer diagnosis and chemotherapy, undertaking more public engagements as her health has improved, the royal insiders have disclosed the future queen and Prince William’s plans for 2026.

According to a report by the Telegraph, Kate and William will celebrate home-grown heroes next year by showcasing “the best of Britain”.

The royal insiders have claimed the Prince and Princess of Wales will place “real emphasis” on British businesses, skills, and creativity – as well as unsung community heroes – in at least one engagement a month.

The palace aide says, “It's really important for the Prince and Princess of Wales to shine a spotlight on the unsung heroes of the UK. There will be a real emphasis in 2026 on showcasing some of the best of Britain.”

The report further claims Kate and William’s focus on the best of Britain will be in addition to the Prince’s Homewards project, which aims to prove it is possible to eradicate homelessness, his Earthshot environment prize, and the Princess’s Centre for Early Childhood.

They are expected to begin issuing their own royal warrants from spring 2026, following the King and Queen who have already granted theirs for the new reign.

Senior members of the Royal family support British business through royal warrants, which denote the products or services they use themselves.
