Prince George meets President Obama in dressing gown and slippers after staying up past his bedtime

PRINCE George got to stay up late last night – to meet President Obama and
wife Michelle.

The couple came for dinner with Kate, William and Harry.

But George, two, was allowed to go to bed late in order to say hello and
waited eagerly inside the door as all five headed in for dinner.

The ‘casual dinner’ was served inside William and Kate’s 22-room apartment,
refurbished with £4.5million of taxpayers’ cash.

“Sorry about the weather,” Wills told the President. “You’ve
had a long day.”

Obama, wearing a black suit and open-necked white shirt, replied: “We’ve
enjoyed it.”

born.
