Prince William jokes about Duchess Kate's 'broodiness' on Scotland trip

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have arrived in Scotland for a two-day visit focused on mental health engagements as the UK marks Mental Health Awareness Week. The Cambridges began their trip at St John's Primary School in Port Glasgow where they sat in on a Roots of Empathy session and met students involved in the programme.

The next engagement of the day took William and Kate to the Wheatley Group site in Kennishead to see first-hand how they are transforming the lives of disadvantaged or vulnerable people, including those at risk of homelessness. Lastly, the royals paid a visit to the University of Glasgow to talk with students about mental health and wellbeing.

William and Kate, who are known as the Earl and Countess of Strathearn in Scotland, began their trip at St John's Primary School in Port Glasgow.

The visit tied in with the Duchess' long-term work on early childhood, which highlights how good social and emotional development at a young age supports us to thrive as adults.

Kate looked gorgeous in an all-blue outfit, with a stunning top and trousers, paired with matching heels.

As the couple began their visit to the school close to the banks of the River Clyde in Port Glasgow, the Duke joked "Can you get my wife out of here before she gets broody?"

The royals took part in a Roots of Empathy session, a programme developed in Canada and run by Action for Children that helps children aged five to 13 build empathy. During the session, William and Kate watched pupils interact with a mother and her young baby as they learnt how to build their understanding of the baby's needs and emotions.

The royals also spoke with slightly older students who have completed the programme to hear their reflections and experiences and understand how the sessions have benefitted them.

Their second engagement of the day took William and Kate to a project operated by The Wheatley Group in in Kennishead. They saw first-hand how the group is transforming the lives of vulnerable people and those at risk of homelessness, an issue that has long been a focus of Prince William's work.

The royals spoke with service users who have benefitted from access to employment support and also met young people and families who have been helped by the Wheatley Group, in the form of education bursaries for example.

William and Kate were then invited to one of the new-build homes constructed by Wheatley Homes Glasgow. They met the family living there who are now enjoying the good quality, permanent housing.

On their final engagement in Glasgow, the royals stopped by the University of Glasgow to talk with students about mental health and wellbeing. They met academics and recent alumni as well as students who are going through exam time at the university.

After their university visit, William and Kate took part in a short walkabout where they met members of the public.

Kate was presented with flowers and bags of cuddly toys, presumably for her three children.
