Is the US president going to this too? Seems like I read he was attending an event after the State event in the U.K.

He's going to an event in Portsmouth with HM, but he's also going to France potentially to attend the services at Bayeux but he'll also be present when President Macron gives Legion d'honneur, to five US veterans aged between 94 and 100.

The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall are going to France on Thursday for a service of remembrance at the Bayeux Cathedral.

Do you know who will represent the UK ? The Duke of Cambridge attended the World War I celebration in Belgium, but I wonder if the Prince of Wales will attend this time.


For the Netherlands and Belgium, I assume the King and the Queen themselves will attend, won't they ?
