The Royals Are Coming
Prince Charles and his wife are in the U.S. on their first overseas visit as a married couple. Posted: 9:35 AM Nov 1, 2005 |

Prince Charles and his wife will visit Ground Zero in New York Tuesday to unveil a memorial to British victims of the 9/11 attacks.
The visit is the first stop on the couple’s weeklong tour of the U.S.
Charles and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, will dine Wednesday at the White House. They’re scheduled for a second White House visit during the week, as well.
Later in their first overseas trip as man and wife, they'll meet with aid workers and residents in hurricane-battered New Orleans and visit San Francisco.
The couple is also scheduled to meet with U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan.
The visit, according to a Windsor Palace press release, “will also focus on the vital importance of the economic relationship, and the exceptional range of cultural, environmental and community links between the two nations.”
But the trip is also part of a careful palace plan to win acceptance for the duchess in a country still in love with Charles' first wife, Diana.
Charles and Diana divorced in 1996; she was killed in a Paris car crash in 1997.
