William and Kate set for two years of Royal tours after 'disastrous' last trip
ok.co.ukThe King and Queen, as well as other senior members of the Royal Family including the Prince and Princess of Wales, are said to be readying themselves for two years of worldwide tours in a bid "to keep Commonwealth intact", in a "soft democracy" blitz.
While it is understood that the monarch will prioritise visits to key nations such as Australia, New Zealand and a number of Commonwealth realms in the Caribbean, there are a number of countries that will also be high on the agenda such as India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Prince William and Kate are central to these plans and will travel on a number of important tours over the coming two years in what has been described as a way to "extend the hand of friendship and support." The couple's last trip was to the Caribbean and was met with criticism so soon after Barbados had removed the late Queen as their head of state and became a republic.
