William and Kate have left Kensington Palace and travelled to Bucklebury, Berkshire, where they will stay at the home of Kate’s parents Carole and Michael Middleton. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were spotted being driven out of the palace at around 1pm on Wednesday, shortly after they received a visit from both the Queen and Prince Harry.
Prince George, who is destined to be King, has now met all of the couple’s closest relations, apart from Prince Philip. According to reports, Prince Philip has been staying at Sandringham, Norfolk.

Carole, who is also mother to Kate’s siblings Pippa and James, will be on hand to offer advice during this precious time.
Kate is extremely fond of Bucklebury. In turn, locals are proud of their royal connection, and the parish has been decorated with celebratory banners. "There’s definitely a buzz about the place," said one local. "There’s such a nice feel."
