Melania Trump flaunted her fashion credentials in a cream skirt suit as King Charles and Queen Camilla's state visit continues. The First Lady stepped out alongside husband President Donald Trump on Tuesday to greet the British Royals to the White House. She wore a chic two-piece with matching heels and boater hat.
President Trump and First Lady Melania have rolled out the red carpet for British royals King Charles and Queen Camilla in an official welcome on their state visit. The official arrival began with a traditional military ceremony by the US Army Herald Trumpets, followed by national anthems of both countries played by the US Marine Band and a Presidential Salute Battery rendering a 21-gun cannon salute.
Charles and Queen Camilla have a jam-packed schedule for their second day in Washington, DC, which includes a bilateral meeting with Donald Trump, his address to Congress and a formal state dinner. In a historic address to Congress at 3pm, the king is expected to emphasize the two countries' long history and shared democratic values during his speech in an effort to help strengthen the special UK-US relationship, which has been under serious strain in recent months.
The visit is the most important foreign trip of the King's reign so far, but it now has the added element of heightened security concerns after an attempted assassination of the president on Saturday at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner. After the royal couple wraps up in DC, they will head to New York to honor 9/11 victims and then to Virginia to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence.
