According to a White House statement shared by the British Embassy in Washington on Twitter, “They underscored the strong UK-US relationship and the friendship between our peoples.”

The US president congratulated The King on his upcoming coronation and informed him that his wife Jill Biden looks forward to attending on his behalf.

Shortly after the statement was issued many royal fans said Meghan Markle and Prince Harry would also confirm their attendance soon.
