    Although Kate Middleton's exact itinerary is yet to be released, it's thought she'll enjoy a brief tour of the shiny new ship - which boasts a 27 bars and restaurants, a 280-seat entertainment area and a glass-bottomed walkway - after the ceremony.

    And we think she'll be impressed.

    The 1,083 foot long vessel has the largest outdoor cinema at sea, two pools which transfer into dance floors come evening, and a glittering three-deck high golden atrium at the centre.

    'It is a great honour for Princess Cruises that Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge has accepted our invitation to become the Godmother to Royal Princess,' Princess Cruises’ president Alan Buckelew said.

    'We are delighted that the Duchess will launch our new ship and can think of no better way to celebrate our company’s British heritage and our commitment to the country.'

    After signing off from royal duties, Kate Middleton and her baby bump are expected to travel to her family home in Bucklebury, Berkshire to prepare for the new arrival.
