Here’s what we know…
Last year saw Donald Trump’s first official visit of the United Kingdom, announcing before he left, ‘I think they like me over there’.
In response, the UK came out in force to say otherwise, holding mass protests in the streets, resulting in the president actually avoiding the English capital and staying at Windsor and Chequers for his official engagements instead.
Everyone from TV presenters and A-list celebrities to politicians and athletes got involved, with even Prince Charles and Prince William choosing not to meet the President, and leaving the Queen to meet DT at Windsor Castle solo.
That’s right. The royals reportedly refused to take part in his tour of the UK, something that rarely happens.
‘It’s a very, very unusual thing for the Queen to be there on her own,’ a source explained to The Sunday Times. ‘Usually she is accompanied by somebody.’
The source continued: ‘This business of Prince Charles and Prince William not being there for the Trump visit was a snub.’

But now with Donald Trump announcing that he is returning to the UK for an official visit, it looks like Prince Charles is going to have to meet the President.
According to CNN, Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, will host Donald Trump and Melania for afternoon tea at Clarence House.
For the three day visit however, the Trumps will be guests of the Queen.
Donald Trump is set to arrive in the UK on 3 June.
