Kensington Palace Kate Middleton and Prince William and Princess Mette-Marit and Prince Haakon of Norway

It was a meeting of two future kings at Windsor Castle on Thursday.

Prince William and Kate Middleton got reacquainted with counterparts from Norway, Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit, at a meeting on Thursday during the Norwegian royal couple's visit to the U.K. Haakon and Mette-Marit planned to visit the U.K. in September, but their visit was rescheduled due to Queen Elizabeth II's death. King Harald and Queen Sonja of Norway attended the state funeral service for the late monarch at Westminster Abbey.

It was a reunion for Prince William, 40, and Princess Kate, 41, who spent time with Prince Haakon and Princess Mette-Marit, both 49, during a visit to Oslo in February 2018 — but this time, Prince William is also next in line to the throne.

The Prince and Princess of Wales hosted Crown Prince Haakon and Princess Mette-Marit for the Windsor Castle meeting, where they focused on discussing shared concerns about the environment, their office at Kensington Palace said. After their meeting with the Norwegian royal couple, all four of them sat down with representatives from three leading companies from Norway who are working on green energy solutions.
