Queen Camilla gave a special nod to US-UK relationship as the monarch arrived in America for their much-anticipated state visit on Monday (27 April). King Charles and Camilla will carry out a four-day state visit - described as the most important foreign trip of the King’s reign so far - with relations between Donald Trump and the Prime Minister fractious over the Iran war. Arriving in the US, Camilla walked down the steps of the plane with a brooch pinned to her chest featuring the American stars and stripes crossed with the Union flag. The brooch was presented to Queen Elizabeth II during her 1957 state visit to America on behalf of New York during a civic lunch hosted by the city’s then mayor, Robert F Wagner.
