Why did Prince William skip Jimmy Carter’s funeral? That’s what a lot of fans and critics on both sides of the aisle can’t help but wonder. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
Why Did Prince William Skip Jimmy Carter’s Funeral?
Seeing how Prince William wants to be known now as an international statesmen, one would think that he would have attended Jimmy Carter’s funeral, and especially knowing that all five living presidents would be there.
But instead, Buckingham Palace sent former prime minister Gordon Brown and Prince Edward in his place. And of course, a lot of people can’t help but wonder: what gives?
Needless to say, the internet certainly did have a lot to say about the matter.
Some even commented with, “Just to be clear, Americans would not have preferred William to be there. I don’t know a single person here who gives a flying flip about what William does.”
“However, if they rearranged the seating and put William next to Trump, preferably in the back of the Cathedral, I think everyone would have been happy, including William and Trump.”
Another critic wrote, “Obviously, the purpose of Jimmy Carter’s funeral is first and foremost to honor Jimmy Carter.”

“However, not that I think W shouldn’t have attended (I think he would have been a logical choice), a lot of world politicians are battening dow the hatches for the coming of CFDT2.”
And then there was this comment as well: “Overall I don’t think many Americans – including the Carter family – cared too much about who the royal family sent.”
“Sending Edward may have made it easier for Biden even because there was no expectation that Biden carve out time for Edward and if it was william, you know he would have insisted on a photo op with either Biden or Trump or maybe even Obama and that just wasn’t the appropriate venue for that.”
So far Buckingham Palace has not made any comments about the matter just yet. We will update you with all of the latest details once they come in.
