Hold onto your hats, folks! If you thought Prince Harry and Donald Trump were destined to be on opposite sides of the spectrum, think again. In a surprising twist, the two actually managed to get along during the Queen Elizabeth's palace exhibit at Buckingham Palace on June 3. That's right, Harry seemed to have set aside any differences he might have with the U.S. president, even after Donald had called his wife, Meghan Markle, "nasty." Imagine the tension in that room, but somehow, they made it work!
What Led to the Tension Between Donald Trump and Meghan Markle?
Let me set the scene for you. Just hours before Donald Trump arrived in the U.K., he was purportedly quoted saying that Meghan Markle was "nasty." Now, here's the backstory: before the American politician left the States, he recorded an interview with The Sun about his upcoming trip to England. During that interview, he learned that Meghan had referred to him as "misogynistic" and "divisive" back in 2016. Naturally, he couldn't resist firing back at the former Suits actress. Can you picture the drama unfolding across the Atlantic?
However, shortly after The Sun published their interview with the U.S. politician online, Donald Trump quickly took to Twitter to deny ever calling Meghan Markle "nasty." He tweeted on June 2, "I never called Meghan Markle ‘nasty.’ Made up by the Fake News Media, and they got caught cold!" Despite the back-and-forth, Meghan wasn't in attendance because she's still on maternity leave after the birth of their son, Archie, on May 6. But Harry? He was all in, showing up to support his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, at the palace exhibit.

What Happened When They Met?
Now, let's dive into the moment they actually met. When Donald Trump, along with his daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner, arrived at Buckingham Palace's Picture Gallery, Harry didn't exactly rush over to Donald for a chat. Instead, the Duke of Sussex went straight to Earl Peel, the Lord Chamberlain, to discuss the exhibit. It was as if he had more pressing matters to attend to than engaging in small talk with the American president. Can you imagine the awkwardness in the room?
