“Nice to meet you, but it would have been better if you were in your own country. Ireland belongs to the Irish,” Kate Middleton, the new Princess of Wales, faced the nationalist sentiment of the inhabitants on Thursday in Belfast.
A woman thus rebuked the princess, without harshness, but with a clear message. The princess decided to laugh about it, as can be seen in the sequence filmed by the British press, and she continued her exchanges with the public.
The Prince and Princess of Wales were in Northern Ireland, County Antrim, on Thursday (October 6) to visit a suicide prevention center as part of their mental health campaign.
Kate and William were created Baron and Baroness of Carrickfergus, the county’s oldest town, on their wedding day in 2011, recalls the daily mail.
Separatist wishes are heard in Scotland, Ireland and even Wales.
Marked by three decades of bloody Unionist-Republican unrest, and then Brexit turmoil, Northern Ireland was plunged into uncertainty again in February. with the resignation of Unionist Prime Minister Paul Givan, unhappy with the post-Brexit situation. This automatically led to the departure of Deputy Prime Minister Michelle O’Neill. The nationalist party Sinn Fein, in favor of the reunification of Ireland, won a historic victory in the country last May.
Last September, the Irish Republican Party offered its condolences to the royal family after the death of Elizabeth II, but refrained from attending the ceremony for the proclamation of the new king.
