Trump Begins Historic Second UK State Visit, Meets King Charles III at Windsor

President Donald Trump commenced his unprecedented second state visit to the United Kingdom today, September 17, 2025, with a grand reception at Windsor Castle. Accompanied by First Lady Melania Trump, the President was greeted by King Charles III and Queen Camilla, marking a significant moment in US-UK relations.

The day’s events began with the presidential couple’s arrival at Windsor Castle aboard Marine One, where they were welcomed by Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales. Following a ceremonial reception, President Trump and the First Lady joined the King and Queen for a carriage procession before observing a guard of honor, reportedly the largest ever organized for a state visit to the U.K. The evening will conclude with a state banquet hosted by the royal family.

This visit marks a historic first, as President Trump is the only elected political leader in modern times to be hosted for two state visits by a British monarch, having previously been received by the late Queen Elizabeth II in 2019. White House officials highlighted that the visit aims to reinforce the deep ties between the United States and the United Kingdom, and celebrate the upcoming 250th anniversary of the U.S. founding.

Tomorrow, President Trump is scheduled to meet with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer at Chequers, the prime minister’s country residence, before returning to the U.S.
