For Prince William and Kate Middleton, 2023 was a major yer. The couple took on more responsibilities as senior members of the royal family, tended to their individual and joint projects and ventures as the Prince and Princess of Wales, and focused on raising their three young children. 

With the start of 2024, the couple already has their sights set on plans for the year ahead, and it reportedly includes a major trip overseas.  The trip could yield a tremendous amount of insight into where the monarchy stands globally in the year ahead.
