Royal Holiday! Wills, Kate To Visit California In July

LOS ANGELES (CBS) — The new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are scheduled to visit California in July.

The prince's office announced Wednesday that Prince William and his wife, the former Kate Middleton, will be in California for three days, beginning July 8.

The palace did not provide details about the newlyweds' itinerary, but a story on Andrew Morton's website, themortonreport.com, reported that the couple planned to make a stop in Hollywood.

If that turns out to be true, Chief Charlie Beck said the LAPD would be ready.

"I can deal with everything from the president being here, to Britney Spears, to Lindsay Lohan, and I can deal with the Royals," Beck said.

The trip will be William's first official and Catherine's first ever trip to the United States.
