Donald Trump and Melania Trump are hosting King Charles and Queen Camilla for their 4-day State Visit. On Monday, they arrived at the White House, and a lip reader revealed that the First Lady made her feelings clear right away.
U.S. President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump welcomed King Charles and Queen Camilla to the White House on Monday. The couple greeted the royals and posed for photos before walking across the White House lawn, where the First Lady showed them her beehives.
Donald and Melania visited Charles and the royals in September last year. During that trip, which marked the Trumps’ second U.K. State Visit, Melania spent time with both Queen Camilla and Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales.
As they greeted Charles and Camilla at Windsor, a lip reader revealed that the King even cracked a joke. At the time, Melania wore a large, wide-brimmed purple hat that sometimes covered her eyes.
Speaking to Metro, forensic lip reader Nicola Hickling said Donald began the exchange by telling Charles, “How are you doing, it’s a pleasure, Your Majesty. Thank you for inviting me.”
King Charles then turned to Melania and joked, “I do hope the wind doesn’t blow away your hat,” to which the First Lady responded with a warm laugh.
That Melania and King Charles got along well last time was quite clear. Now that they have met again, lip reader Jeremy Freeman has shared his insight into Melania’s latest conversation with the U.K. monarch.
As King Charles and Melania met outside the White House, they shook hands before Melania greeted him with cheek kisses. Neither the First Lady nor the President bowed to the King and Queen, something many people believe is required, though it is not.
When Charles and Melania shook hands, the monarch said, “Oh, it’s so nice to see you,” Freeman told The Mirror.
Melania responded, “So pleased to see you,” and added, “I’m really delighted.”
