  • The Prince of Wales was spotted in Paris on Saturday with Donald Trump, the president-elect who will officially be in office on Jan. 20, 2025. According to The Telegraph, William's trip for the Notre Dame Cathedral reopening was a "hastily arranged diplomatic mission" because there is so much "at stake" with a second Donald Trump administration.

The article from SheKnows discusses a brief and seemingly awkward encounter between Prince William and former U.S. President Donald Trump at a D-Day commemoration event in France in 2019. The interaction, which took place at Portsmouth, England, before the leaders traveled to Normandy, was marked by a short handshake and minimal conversation, reflecting the strained relationship between Trump and the British royal family. Prince William, who was there to honor his great-grandfather King George VI, appeared to keep the interaction formal and brief. The article highlights the underlying tensions, including Trump's previous comments about Meghan Markle and the general unease within the royal family about Trump's presidency. This meeting was one of the few public interactions between the two, showcasing the diplomatic challenges and the personal dynamics at play during international commemorative events.
