There was a very awkward moment when France's first lady tried to clasp the Queen's hand after placing flowers at the D-Day memorial
France's first lady made an embarrassing blunder at the D-Day memorial today that left onlookers cringing.
During the service the Queen and Brigette Macron, both dressed in stunning white dresses, laid wreaths of flowers at the British Normandy Memorial at Ver-sur-Mer.
After they placed the bouquet, the pair stood back to reflect on the moment and Macron reached out for Camilla's gloved hand.
However, Camilla withdrew and did not return the gesture for a moment and the wife of the French Prime Minister grabbed it.
After she gave the monarch's hand a slight squeeze, Macron dropped it and the two stood side by side in front of the memorial as they reflected on the significant monument.
