King Charles and Queen Camilla landed in the US on Monday for their historic state visit — and it looks like the Queen and First Lady have been getting on like a house on fire.

The trip — the first since President George W. Bush hosted the late Queen Elizabeth in 2007 — coincides with the 250th anniversary of US independence from Britain,and aims to celebrate the relationship between the two countries. Which,as we know,has recently felt strained due to the transatlantic divide over Ukraine and the Middle East.

But so far,it seems the rapport between President Trump and the monarch has been pretty positive.

During a state dinner,Trump described the UK and US’ bond as ‘friendship unlike any other on Earth,’ while Charles ‘prayed with all [his] heart that our alliance will continue to defend our shared values.’
