Princess Kate received a wink from French President Emmanuel Macron during the State Banquet on Tuesday evening.
Emmanuel Macron was spotted bonding with the Princess of Wales during a star-studded state banquet at Windsor Castle last night, with the pair clinking glasses during the glittering festivities.
The French President's interaction with Kate marked her glamorous return to state functions following her cancer treatment and preventative chemotherapy last year.

This marked the beginning of Macron's three-day state visit to the UK.
The last State Banquet Kate attended was in November 2023 for the South Korean State Visit, before undergoing major abdominal surgery and receiving her cancer diagnosis in 2024.
The Princess of Wales announced in 2025 that she is now in remission.

During his speech, His Majesty made a particularly warm reference to his eldest son and daughter-in-law's family life at Windsor. The tribute came as part of the King's opening remarks celebrating the deep friendship between Britain and France.
The King praised William's choice to establish his family home at Windsor, drawing a historical parallel to the castle's origins. "The Castle in which we meet this evening was begun by my ancestor - and your sometime countryman - William, Duke of Normandy, in the year 1070," King Charles told President Macron.
"It remains the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world.
"So it is perhaps rather appropriate that my son, The Prince of Wales, who shares that earlier William's name, has made Windsor his home with his family, like so many of our predecessors."

LATEST ROYAL NEWS:
The Prince of Wales, 43, relocated to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor Great Park in 2022 alongside Kate and their three children - Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
The family previously resided at Apartment 1A in Kensington Palace, which had formerly served as Princess Margaret's residence.
Adelaide Cottage sits just half a mile from Windsor Castle, which became Queen Elizabeth II's primary residence during her final years.
The historic royal dwelling provides the family of five with access to the Berkshire countryside, where George, Charlotte and Louis now attend Lambrook School preparatory school.
