Trumps welcome Britain's King Charles and Queen Camilla to the White House

Britain's King Charles and Queen Camilla arrived at the White House on Monday (April 27) where President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania greeted the couple.

The state visit, by far the most high-profile and consequential of Charles' reign, marks the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Declaration of Independence from British rule, and is the first to the country by a British monarch in two decades.

On arriving in Washington, the king and queen will have a private tea with the president, an unabashed lover of the British royal family who regularly describes Charles as a "great man," and his wife Melania.
