A remarkable video suggests that Queen Camilla politely requested Princess Kate to shift positions during the formal reception for Donald and Melania Trump at Windsor Castle.
The incident occurred as Kate, 43, was conversing with First Lady Melania shortly after their arrival with President Donald Trump, who landed via helicopter amidst tight security measures.
Kate and Prince William were the first to greet the Trumps upon their arrival at the Windsor Estate, engaging in friendly dialogue as they proceeded to meet King Charles and Camilla outside Victoria House.
During the ensuing interactions, Charles conversed with President Trump while Camilla and Melania engaged in their own discussion, with Kate chatting amicably with Melania under the watchful eye of the Queen.
Following a brief conversation, Camilla gestured for Kate to move, prompting Kate to bid farewell to Melania and join her husband, William.
As the group prepared to head to Windsor Castle, Camilla and Melania exchanged a few words before proceeding to the awaiting horse-drawn carriages for lunch.
During the subsequent state banquet, Kate looked stunning in a Philippa Lepley gold lace evening coat, showcasing British craftsmanship and creativity with its intricate detailing.
Additionally, Kate adorned the Royal Family Order of King Charles, Royal Family Order of Elizabeth II, Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order, and GCVO Star and Sash, while William looked elegant in a white tie ensemble.
Ahead of the banquet, the royal couple shared a photo on social media, captioned “Ready for The State Banquet,” showcasing their attire for the evening.
