THE King and Queen rolled out the red carpet for the President of France Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte in Windsor yesterday at the start of the French state visit to the UK.
-
Charles and Camilla warmly greeted the French leader and the first lady on a specially constructed Royal Dais near the town’s Windsor and Eton Riverside train station, with the castle in the backdrop.
Mr Macron dolled out the Gallic charm by taking Camilla’s hand and leaning forward to air kiss it, having earlier greeted the Princess of Wales at RAF Northolt with the same gesture.
Nearly 400 military personnel from the Army, RAF and Royal Navy lined the High Street along the ceremonial route and a 41-gun salute sounded in nearby Home Park in Mr Macron’s honour to mark his arrival.
