The Queen’s awkward moment with Princess Anne in front of the Trumps

What really happened. - by Mark Brook
  • 05 Dec 2019

Princess Anne has been caught in a rather tense moment involving her mother Queen Elizabeth,  President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

The royal family attended the Buckingham Palace reception marking 70 years of NATO.

In the clip Her Majesty can be seen shaking hands with Donald and Melania and then looking over at her daughter Anne, who simply shrugs her shoulders.

However a reporter has since set the record straight and says there was no “telling off” whatsoever.

“OK, here goes… Princess Anne: the truth. No, she didn’t snub the Trumps. And she wasn’t told off by the Queen,” said reporter Valentine Low.

Low revealed that The Queen looked at Anne to see which world leader was next, but there was nobody, hence the shoulder shrug by Anne.

“This excellent bit of sleuthing comes from the very wonderful Laura Elston of the Press Association, who is as impartial a witness as you could hope for,” Low said on Twitter.

The President is in town for the Nato summit, where he admitted that climate change is an issue and that he listened to the concerns of Prince Charles during an afternoon tea at Clarence House.

“What he really feels one way about is the future,” Mr Trump told ITV.

“He wants to make sure future generations have climate that is good climate as opposed to a disaster, and I agree.

“I did mention a number of things, I did say the United States right now has among the cleanest climates,” he concluded.
