Princess Kate made her feelings pretty clear as all eyes were on her first foreign tour to Italy after her life-changing cancer battle.

"The Princess is very much looking forward to visiting Italy next week and seeing first-hand how the Reggio Emilia approach creates environments where nature and loving human relationships come together to support children’s development," the Palace shared.

Now, an insider unveiled Princess Kate's feelings over her big milestone. 

"The Princess is feeling well and energised about making the trip to Italy. The visit reflects that she can begin undertaking international trips like this again, while, of course, still taking a balanced approach," the source shared with the Mirror. 

Kate's visit marks a "significant milestone" for her as it hints at her future royal tours. 

Moreover, Princess Catherine will convey a strong message about her long-standing commitment towards early childhood with this trip.
