Members of the British royal family will visit Ireland at the end of March.

It is part of a world tour to mark Queen Elizabeth II's 70th year on the throne.

Buckingham Palace says Prince Charles and his wife Camilla will visit Ireland from March 23rd to 25th.

Further information on the visit will be announced "in due course", a statement says.

However rumour suggests the couple may visit Tipperary as part of their two-day trip.

Prince William and his wife Kate will visit Belize, Jamaica and The Bahamas.

While other members of the British royal family will go to places such as Grenada, St Lucia and Papua New Guinea as part of the events.

Charles and Camilla have visited Ireland a number of times, most recently in May 2019.

While Charles' second wife has received a recent blessing from Queen Elizabeth II to become queen when Charles becomes king.

The British monarch made the announcement last month.

Buckingham Palace has previously said she would be known as 'Princess Consort', and not 'Queen', when Charles takes over.

However, Queen Elizabeth II said it is her "sincere wish" that her daughter-in-law becomes queen.

"And when, in the fullness of time, my son Charles becomes King, I know you will give him and his wife, Camilla, the same support that you have given me; and it is my sincere wish that, when that time comes, Camilla will be known as Queen Consort as she continues her own loyal service," she wrote.
