Trump meets with Prince William in Paris after Notre Dame reopening ceremony: 'He's doing a fantastic job'


President-elect Trump praised Prince William of Wales as the two met in Paris Saturday night to celebrate the Notre Dame Cathedral’s reopening.

“He’s doing a fantastic job,” Trump said as he stood beside Prince William in the cathedral, which was closed in 2019 after a massive fire tore through the building.

There were more than 1,500 guests in attendance, BBC reported.

The last time that Trump and Prince William met was in 2019 when the president-elect visited the United Kingdom, BBC reported.

According to the BBC, Prince William and Trump spent roughly 40 minutes together discussing global issues and the importance of U.S.-UK relations. The prince was also set to meet with outgoing U.S. first lady Dr. Jill Biden.

During the ceremony, Trump sat in the front row next to French President Emmanuel Macron and French first lady Brigitte Macron.

Beside the French first lady was first lady Jill Biden, who sat with her daughter Ashley Biden.

Staunch Trump ally Elon Musk and former Secretary of State John Kerry were also in attendance. The BBC reported that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was also present.
