Albert returned to his mother's hometown of Philadelphia back in 2023. It was reported in 2016 that the Prince had purchased his mom’s childhood home. “The house was very beautiful and very special to our family,” Albert told PEOPLE at the time. He also shared that the home was filled with little "moments of being a family.” The Prince said, “The house was very beautiful and very special to our family."

On Sunday, President Trump became the first sitting U.S. president to attend a Super Bowl. Two days after catching up with Prince Albert, the president is set to meet with another royal. The president will be welcoming King Abdullah II of Jordan to the White House on Tuesday, Feb. 11. The Royal Hashemite Court announced on Feb. 2 that the King had accepted an invitation to meet with the president.

The news followed a recent call between the president and the King. The White House revealed on Jan. 25 that the president had a call with the King of Jordan, during which His Majesty congratulated President Trump on his inauguration. According to the White House, "President Trump thanked King Abdullah for his longtime friendship, and the two leaders discussed the importance of regional peace, security, and stability."

King Abdullah was among the royals who congratulated President Trump on his inauguration last month. "Wishing President Donald Trump every success as he commences his second term. Congratulations on your inauguration, Mr. President," His Majesty wrote on X. "We greatly value our partnership with the United States and are committed to working with you towards a more prosperous and peaceful world."
