5 MINS AGO: Catherine Sends SHOCK Message In High-Level Meeting Between Senior Royals To Decide
Members of the royal family, as we all know, are meant to remain above politics at all times, methodically refraining from overt commentary. However, they have mastered the art of subtly signaling their true feelings on sensitive matters in ingenious ways.
Catherine, the Princess of Wales, has just delivered a stunning message to the U.S. President—one that would not have gone unnoticed—after her appearance at the poignant Commonwealth Day service. Her sartorial choices seem to echo a long-standing royal tradition of diplomatic dressing, much like the late Queen Elizabeth II, who famously used her wardrobe to send subtle yet powerful messages.
Back in 2019, when meeting then-President Donald Trump for the first time during a state visit, the late Queen strategically wore a brooch gifted to her by Barack and Michelle Obama—Trump’s political adversaries. Over the course of his London visit, she continued the trend by wearing a brooch given by the Governor General of Canada and another symbolizing mourning. With her passing, it seemed this fascinating era of royal “sartorial smoke signals” had come to an end. But now, Catherine appears to have picked up the mantle.
At this week’s Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey, the Princess of Wales donned a striking red Catherine Walker dress with a matching hat by Gina Foster. This choice was met with much praise from Canadians online, who interpreted it as a subtle nod to their country. Whether or not the color was intentionally chosen as a tribute, royal fans from Canada quickly expressed their appreciation on social media.
One admirer wrote, “Thank you for always showing your love and support to Canada. You look stunning!” Another noted, “I am Canadian and I hope that the Princess of Wales’ red dress was a quiet salute to our country. It’s the exact shade of red as our flag—if it was intentional, then I thank you for it.” Many took this as a gesture of solidarity during a challenging time for their nation.
This wouldn’t be the first time Catherine has made a statement through her wardrobe. During her 2016 royal tour of Canada with Prince William, Prince George, and Princess Charlotte, she showcased a series of carefully curated looks that paid tribute to her host nation. One standout moment was a crimson midi dress by Preen by Thornton Bregazzi, which she wore for a reception at Government House in Victoria. She accessorized with matching red suede pumps and the iconic diamond maple leaf brooch—gifted to her by Queen Elizabeth—further cementing her strong connection with Canada. She had previously worn the same brooch during her first royal tour of the country in 2011.
Meanwhile, King Charles III also made headlines at the Commonwealth Day service, using his address to urge the 56 member nations to unite in uncertain times, emphasizing the organization’s continued relevance today. His daughter-in-law’s sartorial choice at the Abbey came as the royal family finds itself increasingly entangled in geopolitical tensions.
Reports suggest that former U.S. President Donald Trump was displeased after King Charles invited Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to Sandringham for tea last week—a pointed display of public support amid the ongoing conflict. The king then followed up the meeting with another strategic engagement, hosting Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau just a day after Zelensky’s departure.
Sources claim that Trump’s allies communicated their dissatisfaction to UK officials, reportedly stating that the images of the king with Zelensky made him feel “less special” ahead of his anticipated state visit to Britain. The response from Buckingham Palace was clear: “The King makes his own decisions about who he meets.”
In an era where every royal move is scrutinized, it seems Catherine, much like Queen Elizabeth before her, has mastered the art of silent diplomacy—delivering messages through elegance, grace, and impeccable fashion choices.
