Prince William and Kate Middleton aren’t the only royals heading to North America this year. Though unlike the British royals, who will be visiting Canada, Prince Albert and Princess Charlene of Monaco will travel south of the Canadian border to the United States.

On the itinerary set for late September, the royal couple will visit Washington D.C. Albert told People magazine that the trip is “to celebrate the 10th anniversary of diplomatic relations and the exchange of ambassadors between Monaco and the United States.”

Growing up, the royal’s mother took him and his sister Princess Caroline to her family’s vacation home on the Jersey Shore. "There's still a Kelly reunion at Ocean City every Labor Day," Albert said, adding that this year, "maybe we'll just surprise them!"

Albert recently opened up about his little ones' saying, "They have this overall happy attitude. They smile all the time. I think they're happy." The proud dad also shared some of the Monaco twins' latest milestones, which includes "almost" knowing "their ABCs and numbers." He said, "They're doing them in French and English. We're speaking mostly English. Gabriella's really very good with her numbers. Jacques is a little bit lazier but he catches up fast and will pass her."
