It&#8217;s finding time to do that. But I love to travel \u2013 yes, it&#8217;s a long flight. But I love the Middle East because that&#8217;s familiar to me [from] growing up. There are so many opportunities now to travel, I think it&#8217;s brilliant to experience it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe princess explained it is key to be able to balance &#8220;a bit of work&#8221; with the children&#8217;s needs and a desire to explore the countries when she and William make such trips.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe added: &#8220;We tend to go further afield when it\u2019s official visits, it&#8217;s being able to carve out time to experience these countries in a more private capacity.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Because otherwise you end up seeing lots of insides of amazing buildings but you don&#8217;t get to meet that many people.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s making sure that you can combine a bit of work with the children. I might see you down there!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nCatherine &#8211; who put money behind the bar for the troops and sipped a half pint of Guinness &#8211; revealed she and her family appreciate having more &#8220;green space&#8221; since leaving London for Windsor.<\/p>\n<p>\nAsked where they live, she said: &#8220;We are in Windsor at the moment. We were in London but moved there for more green space. It&#8217;s close enough to London, not too far away.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nWilliam has caused a stir in recent months with his new beard, but his wife admitted she isn&#8217;t sure how long he will keep it.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe said: \u201cThese trends come and go. I was saying to my husband, I&#8217;m not sure how long he\u2019s going to keep his for.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nCatherine took over as Colonel of the Irish Guards from Prince William following a reshuffle in 2022 after King Charles took the throne, and Monday marked the first St. Patrick&#8217;s Day parade she has carried out without her husband.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe princess &#8211; who missed the celebrations last year after being diagnosed with cancer &#8211; took the salute during a march-past and presented traditional sprigs of shamrock to officers and guardsmen, after earlier awarding long service and good conduct medals in a private ceremony.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/royal_family\/catherine-princess-wales-hopes-take-family-australia-1415312.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>17 March 2025 Catherine, Princess of Wales wants to take her children to Australia and New Zealand.
