Kate Middleton Northern Ireland tour
Prince William and Kate Middleton completed the second day of their royal tour of Northern Ireland after a busy day well-spent at Hillsborough Castle, Ballymena and St. Joseph’s SureStart Facility – a program that offers support to parents with children living in disadvantaged areas. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge kicked off their morning with a meeting with George Hamilton, Chief Constable of the Police of Northern Ireland, followed by a walkabout outside the Braid Arts Centre where they engaged with as many locals as possible before making their way into charity Cinemagic.
The day before, on the first day of their tour, William and Kate had an equally jam-packed day where they played soccer, stepped into a canoe and finished their day at a party in honor of Kate at the Empire Music Hall in Belfast. They even got a taste of the local beer!
