The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge met crowds of well-wishers in Sunderland today as they visited a new music and arts hub in the city.

Kate, who is seven months pregnant with her third baby, wore a dark green Dolce and Gabbana coat for the occasion, paired with suede courts and a matching clutch.

The royal was pictured speaking to the crowds of people who lined the streets to meet her, including two children dressed as police officers.

She also received a bunch of blowers from a delighted young fan.

Prince William was pictured chatting to a 101-year-old resident, Jane, who came to welcome the couple to the city.

The royals visited The Fire Station, a new cultural hub in Sunderland.

They were treated to music, drama and dance performances from local children during their trip to experience the city’s ‘vibrant arts scene and engineering talent’.

The Duke and Duchess are expecting their third child, a younger sibling for Prince George and Princess Charlotte, in April.

Her due date is estimated to be just a few weeks after the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
