The Prince and Princess of Wales have arrived in South Belfast for the beginning of a surprise one-day visit to Northern Ireland.
William and Catherine are visiting The Commons, a project to transform a church on the Ormeau Road into a community centre.
The visit, like King Charles and Queen Camilla's in May, was unannounced, with details kept tightly under wraps amid a strict security blackout, as is the case for all engagements in the area.
Their Royal Highnesses' visit will focus on the Prince’s Homewards initiative aimed at ending homelessness and will be spent meeting organisations and young people working towards it. The couple last visited Northern Ireland in October last year.
