Joe Biden shakes hands with Prince William in Boston
The Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at the 2022 Earthshot Prize awards ceremony in Boston amid their three-day trip to the United States.
Prince William awarded the £1m prize to five innovators tackling climate change. Earlier in the day, William met with US president Joe Biden before touring the JFK Library with Caroline Kennedy, as the Princess of Wales made a solo visit to Harvard’s Center on the Developing Child in Cambridge on Friday.
Meanwhile, sources close to Prince William and Princess Kate have apparently nicknamed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex “the Kardashians” in a sharp response to the trailer for their new Netflix documentary series.
The Times report that “royal insiders” believe that Harry and Meghan “deliberately torpedoed” William and Kate’s visit to the US by allowing the streaming giant to release the first look of the documentary during the US visit.
William and Kate’s trip was “derailed for the second day running by external events,” the outlet said.
On Wednesday, the big royal news story was the resignation of royal household member Lady Susan Hussey following her “unacceptable and deeply regrettable comments” to a Black charity boss.
A source told The Times that Harry and Meghan had been nicknamed “the Kardashians” because “they want all the attention they can possibly get”.
