A photograph of Donald Trump and Britain’s Prince William has gone viral after appearing on social media.
Both men were in France on Saturday for the official opening of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.
The pic of them together shows Prince William to be taller. Reverend Daniel Brereton, a priest in the Anglican Church of Canada, reshared it to X.
“Trump says he is 6’3,” said Father Brereton. “Prince William is “also” 6’3. What a liar the Prince of Wales is. 🙄🙄”

Prince William is “also” 6’3
What a liar the Prince of Wales is. 🙄🙄🙄 pic.twitter.com/J5fCXK8IQo
The joke, of course, is that it’s maybe not Prince William lying about his height.
Brereton’s tweet has had over 45k likes since appearing on Saturday. In the replies, some agreed that Donald Trump is not 6’3”.

However, many were quick to defend Donald Trump. Some audaciously claimed it was down to the camera angle.
Sure.

Many others said that Trump, at 78, had likely shrunk with age. Although this is probably true, Trump has never said he’s anything but 6’3”.
Mate, he’s 78…

You do know that you shrink as you get older right…?
Or did you fall asleep in Biology?
Correct. Donald Trump's 2018 medical exam during his presidency recorded him at 6'3"

Trump is 79 he is no longer 6'3

He has gotten up there in age. He may have been 6’3” at one time, but he may be shorter that now. We all get a little shorter the older we get. Not to mention certain shoes have a little bit thicker souls than others. I have some that make me a few inches taller than I actually…

Wish I had such little going on in my life that I was posting bash pictures about people’s heights

Trump uses pic of Jill Biden to promote his perfumes
Notre Dame officially reopened on Saturday, five years after it suffered extensive fire damage. President-Elect Trump mingled with other world dignitaries at the event and held behind-closed-door meetings with some, including Prince William and Ukraine’s President Zolensky.
He then quickly used the event to try and sell more of his own-brand perfumes. He posted to social media a photo of him and Jill Biden at Notre Dame, suggesting she was drawn by his aroma.
