Donald Trump and Melania Trump touched down in the UK late Tuesday for a three-day state visit. The President and First Lady were welcomed in Windsor by Prince William and Princess Kate, along with King Charles. The warm greeting marked the start of a visit filled with ceremony and royal tradition.
Kate Middleton quickly captured attention with her elegant style. She wore a cranberry red coat dress by Emilia Wickstead, paired with suede heels, a vintage Chanel bag, and a “Neso” hat by Jane Taylor. Fashion editor Laura Sutcliffe called the look “a true seasonal piece,” praising Kate as “a style icon” who perfectly matched the occasion.
As the presidential couple stepped off Marine One, Donald Trump greeted Prince William first and then shook hands with Kate. According to lip reader Jeremy Freeman, the U.S. president made a brief but flattering remark to the Princess of Wales, telling her, “You’re so beautiful.”
The moment quickly circulated online, with many royal watchers praising Kate’s poise and style, while others debated Trump’s candid comment. Melania Trump also turned heads in a neutral-toned coat as she carefully descended the stairs from Air Force One, with Donald Trump reportedly telling her to “be careful.” The state visit is set to continue over the next two days, including a formal banquet and private meetings with the royal family.
