Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
Britain's Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are to attend an NBA game in New York next month.
The royal couple - who are currently expecting their second child - will watch Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James, one of the league's most iconic players, take on the Brooklyn Nets during their first visit to New York City in December.
They will appear at the Barclays Center "to help launch a new collaboration between the Royal Foundation, United for Wildlife and the NBA".
However, Prince William and his wife - who was known as Kate Middleton prior to their marriage - will not be travelling with their 16-month-old son Prince George, who is being left at home with nannies.
The visit will also see the couple attend a number of other formal engagements, including a reception "celebrating the wealth of British talent in the creative industries based in New York".
The announcement comes shortly after One Direction congratulated the Duchess of Cambridge on her second pregnancy.
Singer Harry Styles, 20, admitted he was surprised Duchess Catherine was so slim at 16 weeks pregnant.
The singer told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I said congratulations on the bump. (Though) she didn't look bumpy."
