Though it has not officially been confirmed by his representatives, the Prince is reportedly going to be attending the wedding of his ex-girlfriend Jessica \u201cJecca\u201d Craig. His wife and children will be staying at home.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>A private trip<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Kensington Palace confirmed that William is taking a \u201cprivate trip\u201d to the East African country. It is believed that the Prince paid for his own flights, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">so taxpayer money is not being spent on his private vacation. He did take at least three government funded Scotland Yard police protection officers. Craig, a Kenyan socialite, is marrying the director of conservation at the Zoological Society of London; Jonathan Baillie. Craig and the Prince dated while they were teenagers and the two families have remained close. Jecca&#8217;s father, Ian Craig, has been a good role model for William. The two men are interested in wildlife and conservation.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14938\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14938\" style=\"width: 706px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-14938\" src=\"https:\/\/www.afrizap.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/03\/196992_0.jpg\" alt=\"source\" width=\"706\" height=\"508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.afrizap.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/03\/196992_0.jpg 674w, https:\/\/www.afrizap.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/03\/196992_0-600x432.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.afrizap.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/03\/196992_0-85x61.jpg 85w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 100vw, 706px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14938\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.al-sharq.com\/PortalImages\/News\/Large\/196992_0.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">source<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>Reliving old memories<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Craig is getting married at The Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that figures on the International Union for the Conservation of Nature&#8217;s Green List of successful protected areas.
