  • After the glitz of Hollywood Kate flies back to 'just enjoying being a newly-wed'

    The Duchess of Cambridge has signalled that she will be taking a step back from public life, despite her hugely successful first foreign tour.

    She has told royal aides that following the 11-day trip to Canada and the U.S. – her inaugural trip as a member of the Royal Family – she intends to spend the rest of the summer ‘just enjoying being a newly-wed’.

    Kate and William arrived at Heathrow yesterday after flying from Los Angeles on a British Airways scheduled flight. They had received a rapturous reception in Canada and California, with Kate’s regal glamour stealing the show at a party for Hollywood A-listers on Saturday.

    They will travel to Scotland with the rest of the Royal Family for the Queen’s annual holiday at Balmoral.

    After a long summer break Kate and William will undertake a handful of engagements in the run up to Christmas – just one or two a month.

    A source said: ‘The past few months have been a whirlwind and she just wants to take a step back and spend some time with her new husband.
    ‘She has even joked that people will probably be glad to see the back of her given the number of photographs that have been taken over the past couple of weeks.’
    A St James’s Palace spokesman yesterday confirmed the couple’s plans and stressed that William, too, was keen for a break from public duties.
    ‘The Duke is going for his flying captaincy which he hopes to get in early 2012. He needs to keep up his flying hours and there are some exams to get through, a lot of work needs to done and he has to dedicate himself to that,’ they said.
