King Charles III and Queen Camilla have arrived in the US at the start of their four-day state visit to the US - the first since Queen Elizabeth II's state visit in 2007.

The trip, which comes as the US approaches the 250th anniversary of its independence from Britain, is aimed at celebrating the strong relationship between the two countries.

The red carpet was rolled out for King Charles and the Queen as they began their four-day visit.

They were greeted with flowers from children of UK service personnel stationed in the US. After walking through a guard of honour, a military band played both the US and UK national anthems.

The royal couple then went on to meet Donald and Melania Trump at the White House for afternoon tea.

The royal couple were shown a beehive shaped like the White House, part of a long-running honey-making programme. The Queen posed with military cadets at a British embassy garden party and also met women from organisations campaigning against domestic abuse.

The King chatted with retired British diver Tom Daley, who is now based in the US, and former speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi among other guests
