King Charles' US Visit in Question as Donald Trump Berates UK over Iran

King Charles’s visit marks 250 years of US independence with a busy schedule despite Middle East tensions and political disagreements, sources say.

  • King Charles plans a three-day United States visit from April 27 to 29 to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence, with Buckingham Palace and the White House confirming preparations are "full steam ahead."
  • President Donald Trump's ongoing dispute with Keir Starmer over the Middle East crisis complicates the diplomatic backdrop; Trump previously branded Starmer's approach a "big mistake."
  • Dame Emily Thornberry suggested it would be "safer to delay" the visit, warning Their Majesties could be left feeling "embarrassed," though British and American officials remain determined the trip will proceed.
  • A YouGov poll found 46 per cent of Britons believe the King should cancel the visit, while Trump told reporters he is "looking forward" to meeting King Charles "very shortly."
  • Washington and New York will host the King's visit, and Palace sources report no deviation from the current schedule, noting that royal aides have already completed a "recce" in the United States.
