Joe Biden to visit Ireland in April – but he’s skipping Coronation
A readout of a call between the two on April 4 said: "President Joe Biden spoke today with King Charles III underscoring the strength of the relationship between our countries and the friendship between our peoples.
"The President congratulated the King on his upcoming Coronation and informed him that First Lady Jill Biden looks forward to attending on behalf of the United States. "The President also conveyed his desire to meet with the King in the United Kingdom at a future date." Mr Biden can trace his ancestry to Ireland's west and east coasts, specifically Ballina in Co Mayo and the Cooley Peninsula in Co Louth.
His great-great-grandfather Owen Finnegan emigrated to the US from the Cooley peninsula, while another great-great-grandfather, Patrick Blewitt, was born in Ballina, leaving during the Irish famine in 1850 to sail to America.
