They are expected to focus on education, conservation and youth empowerment on the extended trips.

It's not yet known which countries the Duke and Duchess will visit, but they are expected to include Commonwealth nations.

The couple have previously travelled to Lesotho, Malawi, South Africa and Zambia.

They famously spent their first holiday camping under the stars in Botswana in 2016 and returned for Meghan's 36th birthday in 2017.

Diana and Charles were the first royals to take their kids abroad at a young age - with a nine-month-old William visiting Australia and New Zealand in 1983.

The Queen tended to leave the kids home in Britain, with her mother, during her royal tours with Prince Philip.
