Trump described Catherine as “beautiful” – but was it a violation of the royal protocol or just Crangji?

While the observers were not necessarily Expect the bow or CURTSYMaybe they couldn’t expect this unofficial greeting.

US President Donald Trump’s second visit Britain started on Wednesday with a stop at Windsor Castle, where Prince William and Catherine met him, Amira Wales.

Trump came out of his helicopter, raised his hand in greeting, then shook William’s hand. Then, when Catherine greeted, Trump shook her hand and said: “You are beautiful. Very beautiful.”

Catherine does not seem to interact in one way or another. She arrived to shake the hand of the first lady Melania Trump, and the Quartet walked through the grass towards King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

There are no mandatory behavioral symbols when meeting a member of the royal family, as noted The official royal siteAdding that many people still want it “Monitoring traditional forms” – which for men, is the neck bow.

Technically, Trump did not violate the royal protocol by commenting on the appearance of Catherine, explained by Justin Fovk, the royal historian at the Crown Study Institute in Canada.

“In my opinion, this type of transcendence of the informal rules of personal diplomacy,” Vovk told CBC News.

Later on Wednesday, at the official state banquet, Trump mentioned Catherine’s appearance again, this time in his official speech that was broadcast all over the world.

He said: “Melania and I are happy to visit again with Prince William and see the Royal Highness Princess Catherine, very radiant, very healthy and very beautiful.”

VOVK said that Trump has a history of providing comments such as this in public and official environments, and it is likely to be believed to be swinging that he is a magician or that he breaks the ice.

He added that he is not professional, especially when they meet with members of the royal family – who are accustomed to obtaining comments about their appearance from the general public, but not one on one, especially not during the official state visit when the role of ownership is to put his best foot forward.

“It was very embarrassing. There are many levels of overcoming this,” he said. “How do you respond to something like this in a way that will not make the situation more embarrassing or will not explode as a compliment leader?”

A short history of Trump’s physical comments

It is definitely not the first time Trump made statementsWhether good and bad, around a person’s physical appearance. In fact, it is Previously described Prince William As a “good -looking man” and “very handsome”.

“Somewhat strange”

So, while Trump’s comment on Catherine was “a little strange”, people expect to expect this kind of away from him, Robert Vinci, Dominional President of the Royal Canada Association in Canada.

“He tends to complete people on their appearance and appearance when he meets them. So, the Princess of Wales will not differ in this regard,” Vinci said.

“You have to wonder what her head went through. I love to be a fly on the wall when she and William talk about their day.”

However, conducting these types of comments for members of the royal family “has not been done in general.”

“It is just a weak taste,” he said. “I think he really talks about different leadership patterns, different values, and cultural differences between a person such as the (American) and a 1,000 -year -old institution like British property.”
