Prince William was seen seemingly rushing his chatty wife, Princess Kate, at a lavish royal wedding in Jordan held for King Abdullah’s eldest son Crown Prince Al Hussein.

The Prince and Princess of Wales were among the star-studded attendees at the bash, and it seems as though Kate was enjoying herself so much that even her husband had to intervene to keep things moving.

Middleton, 41, was encouraged to wrap up her lengthy conversation with the now-Princess of Jordan, Rajwa Al Saif, according to footage released by the Royal Hashemite Court.

As the mom-of-three congratulated Princess Rajwa on her wedding day, she complimented the bride’s dress after exchanging several hugs and kisses.

Guests spoke with the newlyweds for roughly 10 seconds, but Kate and Princess Rajwa spoke for just over a minute.

As William stood to her right, the future King stepped in to intervene in the conversation, hastily gesturing to Kate, who was dressed in a stunning long-sleeved pink gown, to wrap it up.

The pair exchanged a quick glance before Kate finally ended her conversation with the newlyweds and headed in to meet fellow guests at Zahran Palace in Jordan’s capital city of Amman.

While William and Kate’s attendance might come as a surprise to many, some royal fans will know that the Prince of Wales and Crown Prince Hussein are both graduates of Britain’s Royal Military Academy of Sandhurst.

The pair share a friendship to this day, and even spent time together in 2018 while William was in Jordan on a state visit.

Both soccer fans, the pair also watched the 2018 World Cup game between England vs Panama together.

For her part, Kate shares a special connection to Jordan after having lived there for three years during her childhood.

The pair, whose attendance was confirmed just hours before their arrival, even took their three children on vacation there in 2021.

Other guests at the lavish ceremony included First Lady Jill Biden, who attended the nuptials with her daughter Ashley Biden.

The FLOTUS is currently on a tour of the Middle East, while her husband stayed back home.

President Biden made headlines Thursday when he took a hard tumble after congratulating graduating cadets at the Air Force Academy in Colorado.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said the president was “totally fine” as he boarded Air Force One for his return trip to Washington.

Princess Beatrice, William’s cousin and Prince Andrew’s daughter, was also in attendance for the festivities alongside her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozz.
