Prince William will travel to Rome this weekend to attend the funeral of Pope Francis, Kensington Palace has announced. Representing His Majesty the King, Prince William will join a host of global dignitaries at the Vatican. The service will be held at St Peter’s Basilica on Saturday.
This will be Prince William’s latest appearance on the international stage, following his meeting with President Trump in France last year. His father, then Prince of Wales, attended the funeral of Pope John Paul II in 2005—a moment that famously delayed his own wedding by a day.
(new story)
While William is off standing in for his father, Prince Harry will make his way to Beverly Hills for the 22nd annual Living Legends of Aviation awards. The ceremony, to be held Friday evening at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, will see the Prince join a host of celebrities, astronauts, pilots and aviation pioneers—all gathered to celebrate achievements in the skies.
The awards will be hosted by actor and aviation ambassador John Travolta.
