威尔士王妃凯瑟琳于周三抵达意大利，这是她接受癌症治疗后首次出访海外。以广为人知的“凯特王妃”身份，她在雷焦艾米利亚市迎接了热情等候的民众，时隔数年重新登上国际舞台。
2024年3月，凯瑟琳宣布自己确诊癌症的消息震惊全球，随后她透露自己已接受了六个月的化疗。
自那以后，凯特一直以缓慢且精心规划的节奏重返公众视野，通过精选的公开活动分享自己的康复历程。

但此次重返海外出访，王妃选择了意大利北部的雷焦艾米利亚开展为期两天的访问，此行聚焦于她格外关注的议题——幼儿发展。此次访问之际，皇家基金会幼儿中心正拓展其国际业务，凯特将调研旨在培养创造力和建立人际关系的幼儿发展方法。
她此次出访的时机颇为引人注目。在伦敦，她的公公英国国王查尔斯三世同样正在接受癌症治疗，周三当天他正在履行王室最隆重的礼仪职责之一，为英国新一届议会开幕发表具有里程碑意义的演讲。
丈夫威廉王子未来将继承王位的凯瑟琳，在Instagram的一篇帖子中将此次雷焦艾米利亚之行称为一次“特别的访问”。
她上一次正式海外出访是在2022年，当时她前往波士顿参加威廉的“地球奖”颁奖典礼。
王妃称赞当地领导人“在教育方面拥有世界领先的理念，鼓励孩子们‘活出’联结”，并表示他们已经认识到“对幼儿阶段的投资至关重要”。
她计划与这座意大利城市中致力于幼儿发展议题的当地家庭、教育工作者和社区领袖会面。
Princess Kate visits northern Italy on first overseas trip after cancer treatment

Catherine, Princess of Wales, arrived Wednesday in Italy for her first foreign trip since she underwent cancer treatment. Arriving to greet eager crowds in the city of Reggio Emilia, Princess Kate, as she’s widely known, stepped back onto the world stage for the first time in years.
Catherine shocked the world when she announced her cancer diagnosis in March 2024, and she later said she had undergone six months of chemotherapy treatment.
Since then, Kate has been making a slow and carefully managed return to public life, sharing parts of her journey through select public appearances.

But for her return to foreign travel, the princess chose northern Italy for a two-day visit focused on a cause close to her heart — early childhood development. The trip comes as The Royal Foundation Center for Early Childhood expands its operations internationally, and Kate was to explore approaches to early childhood development focused on creativity and building relationships.
The timing of her arrival was notable. Back in London, father-in-law King Charles III, who is also undergoing cancer treatment, was carrying out one of the monarchy’s grandest ceremonial duties on Wednesday, delivering a landmark speech for the formal opening of a new session of the British Parliament.
Catherine, whose husband Prince William will one day be king, described the two-day visit to Reggio Emilia as a “special trip” in an Instagram post.
Her last official foreign tour was in 2022, when she visited Boston to attend the awards ceremony for William’s Earthshot Prize.
The princess lauded local leaders’ “world-leading approach to learning, encouraging children to ‘live’ connection,” and said they had recognized “that investment in early childhood is of critical importance.”
She was to meet local families, educators and community leaders who have worked on early childhood development issues in the Italian city.
