W460

Catherine, the wife of Britain's Prince William, is to make her first official solo trip abroad with a visit to Malta in September, Kensington Palace announced Monday.

The Duchess of Cambridge will represent William's grandmother Queen Elizabeth II on September 20 and 21 as the Mediterranean islands celebrate 50 years of independence from Britain.

William and Kate's son Prince George, who celebrates his first birthday on Tuesday, will not be travelling with the duchess as she will only be spending one night away from home, the palace said.
