Queen Camilla sends clear message to Trump with ‘key’ clothing detail

The hope is that the king and queen will help mend the relationship between the two countries, and perhaps King Charles will do just that on Tuesday. Per the BBC, the monarch is set to address Congress, saying, “Time and again, our two countries have always found ways to come together” as he will call for “reconciliation and renewal” between the U.S and the UK.

While the Royal Family never speaks about politics, Queen Camilla decided to make a statement about her view of the country’s relationship with the United States: a brooch.

Grant Harrold, who worked for the Royal Family between 20024 and 2011, stated that the brooch, which was gifted to Queen Elizabeth II by a New York mayor, shows two flags, the U.K.’s Union Jack and the U.S. Star Spangled Banner, joined together. Per Unilad, Harrold stated that the king and queen’s agenda is unity – and that Queen Camilla’s choice of wearing the brooch sends a strong message to Trump.

“And the decision not just to wear it on the first day of the trip, but from the moment they step on to US soil is key,” the former royal aide said. “It shows from the off, they are there for diplomacy. Donald and Melania Trump will notice it, and they will appreciate it. I have no doubt it will be a discussion point at their private meeting.”

He added, “Wearing a brooch from the vaults is also a clever way to remind Trump about the past, as well as the future. It was a gift to the late Queen from a former New York mayor back in 1957, so will possibly cause the President to think back on decades of close ties between the two countries.”
