King Charles III and Queen Camilla attend White House state dinner hosted by President Trump
President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump hosted King Charles III and Queen Camilla at a White House state dinner on Tuesday, April 28, 2026. During the event, Trump publicly revealed that King Charles had privately agreed with him that Iran should never be allowed to have nuclear weapons, a statement that caused concern among royal aides given the king's constitutional neutrality. Charles gifted Trump a bell from HMS Trump, a WWII British submarine, and the two leaders exchanged quips about history.
