Prince William takes the place of his wife Kate for a visit to Malta this weekend because she is suffering from acute morning sickness, Kensington Palace said on Thursday.

"The Duchess of Cambridge will no longer visit Malta this weekend. The Duke of Cambridge will undertake the visit instead," read the statement from Kensington Palace.

Kate had been due to make her first solo trip as a British royal to attend the 50th anniversary celebrations of Malta's independence but has not been seen in public since her second pregnancy was announced earlier this month.
