Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States was more than just a political milestone—it was a celebration of grandeur, unity, and optimism. Lady Victoria Hervey, a VIP guest and regular in Trump’s inner circle, shares her fascinating account of the weekend’s glamour-filled events, offering readers an exclusive look into the heart of the action.
Friday Night: British Charm Meets American Glamour
Lady Victoria began her weekend at a sophisticated soiree hosted by Nigel Farage in the penthouse of the luxurious Hay Adams Hotel. The evening exuded British charm, complete with a menu of fish and chips and sausage rolls, served with Farage’s signature humour and charisma.
In her account, Lady Victoria revealed that one of the first people she encountered was former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss, who appeared relaxed and cheerful, engaging in lighthearted conversations with guests. The vibrant atmosphere set the tone for a weekend of memorable moments and high-profile gatherings.

The Magic of Washington, D.C.
Washington, D.C., was transformed into a glittering hub of celebration. Lady Victoria reflected on the excitement in the city despite the snow-covered streets and frosty weather. "It felt like the centre of the world," she shared in her diary, describing the unique energy that only an event of this scale could bring.
One of the weekend highlights was the Texas Ball, where Lady Victoria discovered a gold sequined jacket emblazoned with “Trump: The Golden Era”. She described how the jacket, perfectly embodying the message of optimism from Trump’s inauguration speech, became a conversation starter throughout the evening. “People were offering double and even triple the price to buy it from me, but it was too special to let go,” she recounted.

A Day of Grandeur and Elegance
Monday’s events began with a prayer breakfast at the iconic Waldorf Astoria, where Lady Victoria joined other guests to reflect on the historic moment. Giant screens in the hotel’s lobby allowed attendees to witness the inauguration ceremony in comfort while the city outside buzzed with excitement.
That evening, Lady Victoria attended the Liberty Ball, one of the grandest celebrations of the weekend. She described the breathtaking moment when Donald Trump and First Lady Melania walked onto the stage for their first dance to Unchained Melody. "It was magical, like watching history unfold before my eyes," she shared in her diary.
The evening also included a touch of fun, with a photo booth styled like a McDonald’s drive-thru window—a playful nod to one of Trump’s iconic campaign moments. Lady Victoria noted that it added a lighthearted charm to the otherwise regal affair.

She described how rickshaws playing YMCA created a festive atmosphere as they ferried guests between events, and she fondly recalled witnessing world-class performances by Snoop Dogg and The Village People.
Even amidst the grandeur, there were moments of kindness and connection. She recounted how a thoughtful stranger offered her an umbrella during a snowy walk to an event—an act of generosity that perfectly captured the spirit of the weekend.
A Weekend to Treasure
Reflecting on the weekend, Lady Victoria described it as an extraordinary celebration of unity and optimism. "This wasn’t just an inauguration; it was a moment in history that brought people together in the most incredible way," she shared.
