Prince William Meets Donald Trump in Paris

Prince William's recent meeting with US President-elect Donald Trump in Paris has raised concerns among royal watchers, particularly regarding Prince Harry's response. Experts suggest that this encounter, which took place at the British ambassador's residence during the reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral, may exacerbate tensions between the brothers, as Trump is viewed as Harry's 'arch-enemy'. William's meeting with Trump is seen as a symbolic gesture of power transition from King Charles, who is undergoing cancer treatment, to his eldest son. Commentators noted that William appeared pleased during the meeting, hinting at a possible 'kick' from interacting with someone critical of Harry and Meghan. Meanwhile, Harry faces uncertainties over his US visa status, which could be complicated by Trump's influence, although discussions about this are unlikely to have occurred during the meeting. The backdrop of this familial discord is further highlighted by Harry's reflections on past tensions with William, particularly surrounding his marriage and the approval of his wedding beard.
