Wearing a geometric black and white dress and a demure blazer, Middleton, 28, looked confident as she walked alongside the future King of England -- and with good reason.

The future Princess will also receive tutorials on royal correspondence, public speaking, and "how to behave at banquets," Nicholl added.
