Kate meets Jackie Chan at reception for Chinese president

 
Kate and her husband were joined by kung fu star Jackie Chan as they met Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife at an event to mark the second day of their state visit to Britain.


Film icon Chan was happy to speak to guests as the group viewed exhibitions from some of the UK's most popular TV offerings, including Poldark and Sherlock, and chatted with stars from the stage and screen.

This afternoon, Mr Xi is joining the Prime Minister at Downing Street for a working lunch and talks with Cabinet ministers. The Government hopes this week’s state visit will secure more than £30 billion of trade deals, including huge investments in infrastructure projects.
