Mary Beard is hilarious. Talking away at William. I may not agree with her very one dimensional characterization of Catherine, but I agree with her about Latin. Learn a bit of Latin and Spanish, Italian and a lot of English come much easier. I've never regretted my Latin. (and that's off topic, sorry!)
I do think it worth noting how open minded the honors award process must be for Mary to be so honored.

The Duke of Cambridge will take part in a conversation with Sir David Attenborough on-stage next month at the 2019 World Economic Forum in @Davos.
They will discuss Sir David’s decades of work highlighting the importance of the natural world and the urgent challenges and opportunities that will face the next generation of environmental leaders.
The Duke will also join a panel discussion on mental health, and will use the opportunity to highlight his belief that the world’s major employers have a vital role to play in promoting mentally healthy societies and workplaces.

 Returning to a familiar setting and listening to stories that likely match his own experience working with East Anglia Air Ambulance.

Actually, my opinion is that working with EAAA was one of the best things that he was allowed to do for a period of time. True life experience that serves to give a good understanding of how things are is perhaps the best teacher.
William, today, could identify with those he met today because he's actually been there, done that and earned the t-shirt.

It was mentioned last year that the younger royals will start the new year busy in January. Also, they’re taking on more responsibility in 2019.

William was exposed to "true life" from Sandhurst onward. Whatever the Brass say is quite irrelevant, the troops will make up their own minds regardless. That time in the Army and then his transfer and stint as co-pilot and then a pilot with 22 Squadron RAF was definitely a "true life experience which co-incidentally allowed William and Catherine to begin family life while posted to RAF Valley.
With the decision to outsource Rescue work, William left the RAF in September 2013 and in July 2015 he commenced work as an EAAA pilot, working 20 hours a week until he retired in July 2017 to move to full-time royal duties. Whatever else this was, a "true life experience" was not it, as there are few others would not need to juggle a stressful full-time job, married life and new parenthood.
To hear that William is getting 2019 off to an early start is a very good look.

I just love the fact that The Cambridge’s and Sussex’s were very busy yesterday. Well managed, KP.

We are clearly moving to a time when the Cambridge's and Sussex' will have very busy days on an ongoing basis. A lot of that will be behind the scenes, private meetings, working in the office and some of it will be public engagements. The problem is that it is only the public engagements that get reported on.
