Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge
Queen's Diamond Jubilee Celebrations
Singapore, Malaysia, Tuvalu, and the Solomon Islands
In September 2012, the Duke and Duchess embarked on a tour of Singapore, Malaysia, Tuvalu, and the Solomon Islands as part of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations, the 60th anniversary of the accession of Queen Elizabeth II on 6 February 1952. During this overseas visit, she made her first official speech abroad, while visiting a hospice in Malaysia, drawing on her experience as a patron of East Anglia's Children's Hospices.
