Kate Middleton: The pregnant royal often uses one particular item when travelling
Kate Middleton, 36, is soon to have her third child with her husband Prince William, 35.
Despite being heavily pregnant, she is still seen travelling the UK for royal events.
Due to this, she has a few things that she always takes with her when travelling the world.
One of them is a well-known suitcase brand that has an interesting history with the royal family.

Kate was last spotted with the British luggage brand during the Canadian tour last year in July.
She has a number of the suitcases in different sizes from the larger Gorin Hotel collection, as well as a smaller Moneypenny vanity case as well.
According to Hello!, both the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge own the large 21” version whilst Prince George and Princess Charlotte have a 13” miniature version.
Whilst they cost upwards of £600, she has also been spotted with Cath Kidston and Longchamp bags containing her belongings as well.

The 36-year-old isn’t the only royal to love the suitcases.
Queen Elizabeth has been using them since her honeymoon in 1947, using a £970 version.
Globe-Trotter was created in Germany but moved to the UK in 1932 where they are designed in Hertfordshire.
The website confirmed: “HM Queen Elizabeth II chose Globe-Trotter for her honeymoon luggage in 1947 and continues to use her cases to this day.”

Royal fans may have also noticed that each royal family member has a different colour tag for their name on their suitcases.
Kate and the Queen share a yellow luggage tag, although Queen Elizabeth’s simply says ’The Queen’ in capital letters.
Prince William has a red tag was as well as his father Prince Charles.
Prince George has blue tags and Princess Diana had baby pink luggage tags for travelling.
