Irish Examiner View: British royal visits to Ireland deepens friendship with our closest neighbours
It is remarkable the extent to which the British royal family continues to take a personal interest in Ireland. Despite Brexit, a number of visits by its members reflects a growing maturity in the relationship between our two countries.
The arrival of Prince William and his wife, Kate, to Ireland means that since 2011 we have had one current and two future British monarchs on official visits here. It represents the first official trip abroad by senior British royals since Brexit came into effect in January.
