Unfortunately, pregnant princess Kate Middleton has had to drop out of her first royal tour to Malta due to morning sickness, says Kensington Palace.

The royal, who is three months pregnant, was scheduled to tour the southern European island country on Sept. 20th for a two-day trip, but her morning sickness is preventing the trip. Prince William is set to step in instead.

"The Duchess of Cambridge will no longer visit Malta this weekend," the Palace revealed. "The Duke of Cambridge will undertake the visit instead. Her Royal Highness continues to suffer from the effects of Hyperemesis Gravidarum. The decision not to visit was taken by the Duke and Duchess on the advice of the Duchess's doctors."

"The Duke is honored to represent Her Majesty The Queen on the visit, which commemorates the 50th anniversary of Malta’s independence. The visit itinerary remains unchanged."

During her pregnancy with Prince George, the 32-year-old experienced the same bouts of extreme morning sickness. However, so far during this pregnancy she has not had to go to the hospital for any inpatient stays.

Let's hope Kate and the royal baby part 2 stay well!
