Catherine, Princess of Wales, visits Reggio Emilia in Italy

Catherine, Princess of Wales, made her first official overseas visit since completing cancer treatment, arriving in Reggio Emilia, Italy. The Princess was greeted by Mayor Marco Massari and a crowd of local residents. Her last international engagement was in Boston in December 2022. During her visit, she engaged with children, speaking some Italian and confirming her name as Catherine. Sources provide conflicting accounts of a specific dialogue with a child, with one report suggesting she introduced herself as 'Catarina' while another mentions a conversation with a girl named Camilla. Catherine wore a blue suit by designer Edeline Lee. The event was marked by significant media presence and security. This visit follows her public disclosure of a cancer diagnosis in March 2024 and subsequent chemotherapy. The Princess is now reported to be in remission.
