Catherine, Princess of Waleshas met with the First Lady of Ukraine at Buckingham Palace. The 40-year-old royal held an audience with Olena Zelenska - who is the wife of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy - at the reception at the Palace on Sunday from the war-torn country as the world leader is expected to represent her country at Queen Elizabeth's funeral on Monday (19.
09. 22). Olena was pictured shortly before 4. 45pm with other members of the Ukrainian contingent as she arrived in the capital city from Ukraine - which has been suffering an ongoing attack at the hands of neighboring country Russia since February 2022 - and sat with the Princess on matching gingham chairs as they both wore black to mark the passing of Queen Elizabeth.
