Prince George and Princess Charlotte will have to celebrate Easter with their mother Kate Middleton alone. Prince William is reportedly spending Easter in Kenya on a four-day trip and is also scheduled to attend his ex-girlfriend's wedding.
He will be present to see "first-hand some of the longstanding conservation and anti-poaching initiatives" in Kenya, according to a report by Perez Hilton. This endeavour is supported by the Tusk Trust and is known and remains to be a huge passion for the whole British royal family. Prince William will also be meeting with Kenya's incumbent president, Uluru Kenyatta.
The 33-year old father of two is also collaborating with the Lewa Conservancy in order to learn more about protecting local rhinos from poaching. Furthermore, he will be involved in research efforts that seek to fit radio-tracking collars to elephants for species conservation.
Interestingly, animal conservation is not the only agenda in Prince William's visit to Kenya. While unconfirmed, the British royal will be attending his ex-teenage girlfriend's nuptials at the Lewa Wildlife Reserve run by Ian Craig. This is the same reserve where William proposed to Kate in 2010.
Prince William first met Jecca's father during one of his visits to Africa in 1998. According to a report by the Daily Mail, Craig sparked and nurtured the prince's interest in conservation. Craig was also said to be a father figure to the Duke of Cambridge. Rumored to have been involved when they were 19-year-olds, William's ex-girlfriend Jessica Craig will be married this weekend to Professor Jonathan Baillie, a Canadian-born world authority on threatened species for the Zoological Society.
Prince William and the Craig family have remained close friends over the years with the British royal attending the wedding of Jecca's brother in 2008. Because of this, the Prince missed the wedding of his cousin Peter Phillips which happened on the same day. Kate had to go to Berkshire in his place alone.
