Donald and Melania Trump have returned to the US after a three-day state visit to the UK. During the trip, Donald met with Prime Minister Keir Starmer, while Melania joined Princess Kate Middleton for several engagements.
The two women visited Queen Mary’s Dolls’ House and the Royal Library at Windsor Castle, met with children at Frogmore Gardens, and participated in art activities. Both brought honey as gifts—Melania from the White House and Kate from her family estate.
While the pair appeared to enjoy their time together, body language expert Inbaal Honigman observed a potentially tense moment. Melania was seen clenching her fist, possibly indicating discomfort, while Kate’s hand positioning suggested she was being slightly guarded. In contrast, Queen Camilla seemed the most at ease during the interaction.
Though it’s unclear if a close friendship has formed, the royal visit gave Melania’s role more substance, according to experts, and showed her warmly engaging with children despite some apparent unease.
