Trump himself shared details of the visit online, stating it would take place between April 27 and 30, including “a beautiful Banquet Dinner at the White House on the evening of April 28th.” He added that he and First Lady Melania Trump “look forward to spending time with the King, whom I greatly respect,” describing the upcoming trip as “TERRIFIC.”

A Speech Filled With Reflection

In his televised message, King Charles paid tribute to his late mother’s enduring impact.

“Today, as we mark what would have been my beloved mother’s 100th birthday, my family and I pause to reflect on the life and loss of a sovereign who meant so much to us all, and to celebrate anew the many blessings of her memory,” he said.

He continued by highlighting how widely she was admired: “Millions will remember her for moments of national significance; many others for a fleeting personal encounter, a smile, a kind word that lifted spirits, or for that marvelous twinkle of the eye when sharing a marmalade sandwich with Paddington Bear in the final months of her life.”
