“His Majesty The King will host The President of the United Sates of America, Donald J Trump, accompanied by te First Lady, Melania Trump, for a state visit to the UK,” the post on the Royal Family’s social media read, alongside a photo of the four from the last state visit in 2019.
When it was first announced, many shared their anger that King Charles had even invited Trump in the first place.
Protests against the US President were held outside Windsor Castle on Tuesday evening. Four men were arrested after images of Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffery Epstein were projected onto the castle walls.
Upon landing, Donald and Melania Trump were welcomed by Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper and the US. Ambassador to the UK, Warren Stephens, along with Viscount Hood, the king’s lord-in-waiting. Speaking to the Express, a lip reader explained they mostly exchanged pleasantries and questions about the route to Windsor.
