  • On July 8, Prince William and Kate Middleton were present at a formal dinner held at Windsor Castle to commemorate French President Emmanuel Macron’s visit.

  • The banquet featured coordinated red, white, and blue attire by Kate, Queen Camilla, and Brigitte Macron, a special cocktail named L'entente, and notable guests including Sir Elton John and Mick Jagger.
  • Kate described her recovery as “a roller-coaster” and said, “Treatment's done, then it's really, really difficult,” emphasizing the need for support post-treatment.
  • The event symbolized renewed UK-France ties, with Buckingham Palace calling it “in the spirit of the Entente Cordial,” marking Macron's first UK state visit in 17 years.
