Donald Trump and Melania arrive in UK for second state visit

On Wednesday, September 17, 2025, the U.S. President and his wife arrived at Windsor Castle, where they received a royal welcome as part of their two-day official visit to the United Kingdom.
The visit follows political differences over Ukraine, the Middle East, and the Western alliance, with protests expected and no public engagements planned for Trump during the stay.
The arrival ceremony included a carriage procession with King Charles III, Queen Camilla, Prince William, and Kate Middleton, who greeted the Trumps and reviewed a Guard of Honour involving about 1,300 military personnel and 120 horses.
During the ceremony, national anthems were played, Trump saluted alongside the King and Queen, and a 41-round gun salute was fired by the King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery on Windsor’s East Lawn.
The visit aims to demonstrate the trans-Atlantic bond despite tensions, but critics described the procession as isolated and compared it to Monty Python, highlighting the visit’s controversial and unusual atmosphere.
