    The smiling couple posed in the grounds of their London Home for the picture, taken to mark their first official overseas engagement as a married couple.

    It’s thought the formal photograph, taken on June 3, could feature in Canadian and American newspapers and on official websites ahead of William and Kate’s trip.

    And if you noticed something familiar about the brand new snap, you’re certainly not mistaken.

    Showing her frugal fashion side once again, Kate chose the same navy blue Amanda Wakeley suit she wore on an official engagement to Darwen in Lancashire, just weeks before the royal wedding.
