King Charles and Queen Camilla traveled to the United States for four days in late April 2026, where they took part in several events at the White House alongside President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.
Moments before the royal couple departed on April 30, they bid the Trumps goodbye outside their car. A lip reader who claimed to have witnessed the exchange said she saw Melania ask Camilla to pass along a sweet message to Kate Middleton and her family.
“Good luck with everything, and enjoy yourself,” Melania told Camilla, according to lip reader Nicola Hickling (via The Sun). She then added, “Send my love to Catherine and William and their children.”
The first lady and Princess of Wales have reportedly grown close, and after Charles and Camilla’s successful trip, the Trumps invited Kate and Prince William to visit America in summer 2026.
“Melania wants Catherine, in particular, to come,” a source told the Daily Mail. “She admires her greatly and would love her to visit.”
This follows a November 2025 report from Page Six that revealed Kate and William were allegedly eyeing an official visit in July 2026, lining it up with the 4th of July festivities.
Melania and Kate previously bonded and spent time together while working with the Scouts in Windsor in September 2025 during the Trumps’ U.K. visit. At the time, a Kensington Palace source told Hello! magazine, “You could very much see how warm and friendly they were after spending time together.”
“They were chatting away and they both really enjoyed the engagement,” the source added. “The First Lady was super-relaxed and she really enjoyed her time with the Princess.”
Another source added that this engagement was “the start of what looks set to be a very warm, long-term relationship between Kate and Melania.”
