King Charles will welcome President Donald Trump at Windsor Castle for his second state visit to the UK in September.
The monarch, 76, extended an unprecedented invitation to the commander in chief and First Lady Melania Trump earlier this year following his historic election win, with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer even hand-delivering His Majesty’s note to Trump.

Starmer has gone against the King’s wishes by bringing Trump’s lavish visit forward by many months, The Times of London reports.
Charles, who is also the current monarch of Canada, had previously invited Trump to meet at either Balmoral Castle or Dumfries House in Scotland.
After palace officials explored all options ahead of Trump’s second state visit, plans were reportedly switched up to ensure the visit was anything but informal.
Princess Diana’s colorful “Caring Dress” sold for $520,000 at auction in Los Angeles on Thursday, and the super collector who took it home was literally floored.
The iconic “silk floral printed day dress” designed by Bellville Sassoon was purchased by Renae Plant, the founder of The Princess Diana Museum.

Plant, who claimed she met Diana in that dress, fell to the floor with tears of joy after she entered the winning bid of $400,000 ($520,000 with fees), according to a video shared on the museum’s Instagram page.

The frock was made for Diana's 1988 Australia tour but she continued to wear it in public until 1992, according to Julien's Auctions.
The dress got the nickname “Caring Dress” because the late Princess of Wales was often photographed wearing it while meeting patients in the hospital.
The Royal Family’s official social media account had a surprising reaction to a video mocking Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s now-viral delivery room dancing video.
In the video, which has since been mercilessly mocked online, the couple “dropped it low” while dancing to Starrkeisha’s then-viral song, “The Baby Momma Dance.”

On Wednesday, British reality TV stars Jamie Laing and his wife, Sophie Habboo, posted a video on social media in which the couple, who are currently expecting their first child, dance to the same song.
The clip, shared with the “Made in Chelsea” alum’s 1.6 million Instagram followers, was filmed on the Grand Staircase at Buckingham Palace, and showed the duo bust out similar dance moves to the Sussexes.
The pair filmed the cheeky video on the gilded staircase, which leads up to the State Rooms, during a reception for King Charles’s charity, The King’s Trust.
Prince Harry is feeling regretful over the role he played in widening the ongoing royal rift, with a prominent royal author claiming he wishes that “he’d done things differently.”
The Duke of Sussex, 40, has been embroiled in a years-long feud with the Windsor clan ever since he and his wife, Meghan Markle, took the plunge and hightailed across the pond to the US.
Since setting up camp in Montecito, Calif., in 2020, the Sussexes have only returned to the UK a handful of times — underscoring just how distant both camps have become.

According to royal author Duncan Larcombe, the “Spare” author wishes he had acted differently when things began to go awry.
“Harry is a sensitive soul and always wore his heart on his sleeve, so whether he’d admit it publicly or not, I’m sure he’s full of regrets and wishes he’d done things differently,” Larcombe told OK! Magazine.
“With Trooping the Colour and Father’s Day falling on the same weekend, it was bound to make him look back at the happy relationships he once had with his brother and dad, and I’m sure he’d love to be able to rebuild those,” added Larcombe, author of “Prince Harry: The Inside Story.”
Celebrity couple George and Amal Clooney were spotted taking a photo with King Charles, 76, at Buckingham Palace for The King's Trust Awards on June 25. The charity celebrates young people who have overcome difficult obstacles to better themselves and their community.
George, 64, was dressed in a grey suit, while Amal, 47, was seen wearing a stylish bare-shouldered black dress. The Clooneys had previously been seen chatting with Charles at Buckingham Palace in March 2019 for the same celebration, formerly known as The Prince's Trust.

The Clooneys have long been friends with the royal family, attending Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding at Windsor Castle in May 2018. George was seen hopping behind the bar at the royal wedding to mix drinks for guests, a source told People.
Meghan and Amal are particularly close, with "Amal helping Meghan settle into London life," the source said. "It was a very natural friendship from day one."

King Charles' charity event took place just a day before the annual King's Trust Award ceremony, which will be located at the Royal Festival Hall on June 26. Charles will greet winners in the eight UK-based categories (Enterprise Award, Education Award, Breakthrough Award, Young Change Maker Award, Young Achiever Award, Community Impact Award, Rising Star Award and Volunteer of the Year Award) as well as the three global categories (Global Young Achiever Award, Amal Clooney Woman’s Empowerment Award and the Global Sustainability Award) at the celebration.
King Charles marks the tenth anniversary of the King's Trust International and their projects with young people located outside of the UK, which will be celebrated with a cake cutting.
President Trump met with King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands and Queen Maxima on Wednesday while in the Hague for the NATO summit — historic for the fact that they're hosting him overnight.

The future king, who has long championed a leaner monarchy, is reportedly crafting his own blueprint for the next generation of working royals.
As a huge question mark looms over the Sussex camp’s involvement in the monarchy once William becomes king, sources say that Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4, will be outcasts from the royal fold under his reign.

“It feels wonderful [to keep her memory alive],” Azagury, who helped Diana revamp her style during her final years, told Fox News Digital during a private preview at The Peninsula Residences London. “Anything that I can do that’s going to carry on the legacy of the princess, I will always do it… It’s a way of keeping her alive really.”
