James Middleton’s ‘proud’ brother moment and sweet message to Kate
James Middleton let the world know that he was a proud brother after sharing a sweet message to his sister the Princess of Wales amid the historic State Banquet.
James Middleton is a proud little brother after his sister, Kate Middleton’s stellar success at the historic State Banquet. James, who is the Princess of Wales’ younger brother, has voiced his pride for his sister after playing a pivotal role in President Trump’s historic second State Visit. Princess Kate and Prince William posted a stunning picture together yesterday on Instagram before appearing at the State Banquet alongside the president, first lady, King Charles, Queen Camilla and other senior royals. Underneath the glamorous snap, James wrote: “Proud to be” next to a Union Jack emoji.
Kate radiated elegance in a couture gown by British designer Phillipa Lepley with a gold Chantilly lace overlay. She wore her new blonde locks in tight mermaid curls and donned her favourite Lover’s Knot Tiara for the occasion. The Princess also wore her Royal Victorian Order sash as well the Royal Family Order of King Charles and Queen Elizabeth for the affair.
The Princess was also instrumental in welcoming the president back to the UK. She and Prince William were the first royals to greet the president and the first lady, Melania after they alighted Marine One at Windsor Castle. Trump was evidently enamored by the Princess, telling her, “You’re so beautiful,” as he greeted her. She and William then escorted the American couple to Victoria cottage where they were greeted by King Charles and Queen Camilla. –
Kate also accompanied the Trumps on the carriage procession through the grounds of Windsor before joining them for an official lunch. Afterwards, the Trumps carried on with their official commitments before Kate and William joined them again later in the evening for the State Banquet. The Princess was seated next to the president who helped tuck her chair in as she settled in for the evening.
