The Duchess of Cambridge is being groomed for her royal duties to prepare her for her future solo appearances.

Kate Middleton, Prince William's blushing bride, is currently under training so she can handle herself well when it's time for her solo appearances. The Duchess of Cambridge has to prepare herself when the day comes that she will be talking to world leaders, charity heads, and influential people all over the globe. The Duchess is expected to start her appearances by next year, giving her more time to train and spend some quiet time before the media has full control over her image.

Experts from all over the world are giving the Duchess one-on-one training sessions for different fields, from the media, government, and the arts. The lessons are held in their St. James palace, where the royal couple is currently residing at. Middleton has already gone on several appearances with her husband, including a North American tour around Canada and Los Angeles.

A royal aide has revealed that Middleton is expected to make solo appearances by next year, steering away from the tradition of waiting for 2 to 3 years.

"I don't think it's going to be as long as that (3 years), but I am just trying to put things in context. Historically, women joining the Royal Family do not begin undertaking solo engagements until around two years after their marriage," said the aide in a report.
