Prince Harry and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge enjoy a magic day out at new theme park opening.
The Prince of Wales has told ITV's This Morning that the prospect of becoming a grandfather has reaffirmed his environmental beliefs.
The Duchess of Cambridge's first pregnancy will inevitably be compared with that of Princess Diana. Here's a reminder of what happened.
Prince William is to feature in a BBC documentary about the Search and Rescue service, where he has served as a Sea King pilot.
You can watch a preview of the documentary below:
BBC One Wales have released a short preview video for Helicopter Rescue, the documentary featuring Prince William and the Search and Rescue team at the prince's base at RAF Valley on Anglesey.
The Duke of Cambridge is shown piloting a helicopter on a rescue mission to a slate quarry in Blaenau Ffestiniog.
One of his crew are winched from the ground after rescuing a boy who had fallen off an old railway bridge onto rocks.
"As captain you're trying to play out the entire rescue, the transit to the rescue and back again in your mind, and pick up any circumstances or problems you can foresee, and try and fix them on the ground before you get airborne," he says in the programme.
Prince William is to be the subject of a BBC documentary series featuring his work as an RAF search and rescue helicopter pilot.
Helicopter Rescue will air on BBC One Wales in April, and will show the Duke of Cambridge serving with C Flight of 22 Squadron at RAF Valley on Anglesey since 2010.
Speaking in the documentary, he said:
"There's no greater feeling than when you've actually done some good and saved someone's life," he said.
"I don't think there's any greater calling in life⦠to be able to see a son or daughter's face when you bring their mother or father back from the edge of death - it's quite powerful."
Helicopter Rescue will air on BBC One Wales on Monday 8 April at 8:30 pm.**

The closing chapter began today in the history of Britain's Sea King search and rescue helicopters - with the announcement that the service will be sold to an American company.
For thirty five years they have provided life saving help and for the past four - a job for Prince William.

Among the 12 bases from where search and rescue operations are launched is RAF Valley on Anglesey, where the Duke of Cambridge is based.
Under the contracts due to be unveiled tomorrow, the total number of bases is expected to be cut from 12 to10 although it is not clear which bases will be closed.
Assurances have already been given that the Duke will be moved to another part of the military rather than being employed by the firm that is awarded the search and rescue contracts.

– Deputy Prime minister Nick CleggThe reforms couldn't be more timely, given the fantastic news that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are expecting a baby.
The other Commonwealth countries where Her Majesty The Queen is head of state have just given us the green light to change the law, and we are wasting no time.
At the moment, if the first child of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge is a girl, any younger brothers she has will overtake her in line to the throne.
We're modernising these out-of-date rules so that men and women in line to the Throne have equal rights.
The House of Commons will debate changes to the laws of royal succession today.
The legislation would end discrimination against female royals so that men no longer took precedence over women in the order of succession.
That would mean the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's first child can become monarch even if it is a girl who later has younger brothers.
The proposals will also end the bar on royal heirs marrying Catholics if they want to keep their entitlement to the throne.
Royal aides have submitted planning permission for a "major development" on the Queen's Sandringham Estate in Norfolk.

The application follows reports that Queen is preparing to give Grade II-listed Anmer Hall to Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge as they prepare for the arrival of their first child.
