It is no longer news that America’s president, Donald Trump is on a three-day trip in the United Kingdom to celebrate Britain’s special relationship with the United States.
Trump’s interventions into Britain’s political crisis over Brexit had threatened to overshadow his state visit to London but instead, the president appeared to relish the royal red carpet that his hosts laid on for him and wife Melania.
The three-day trip was cast as a chance to celebrate Britain’s “special relationship” with the United States, boost trade links in a post-Brexit world and reaffirm security cooperation ahead of the 75th anniversary of the allied D-Day landings in World War Two.
US President Donald Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, First Daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner were all pictured on Monday night at a state dinner at Buckingham Palace.
Senior royals were present at the dinner, including The Queen, Prince Charles, Camilla, Prince William, and Kate Middleton. Outgoing British Prime Minister Theresa May was also present.
