Donald Trump used his speech at King Charles state banquet on Wednesday to highlight the appearance of Kate Middleton, marking his second set of comments on the princess of Wales in a matter of hours.

“Melania and I are delighted to visit Prince William and see his real highness, Princess Catherine,” said Trump, who was sitting next to Kate.

“So radiant, so healthy and so beautiful,” he said about the Real, as he looked at him to nod with his head and smile.
