MELANIA Trump has praised the Queen for the "honour" of inviting them for tea at Windsor Castle.
The First Lady tweeted out photographs of Her Majesty beaming as she greeted her and the US President yesterday afternoon.
The pair flew in to the Queen's Berkshire residence yesterday evening, and were treated with the honour of a display from the Coldstream guards.
The couple greeted the smiling Queen outside before returning inside for tea.
Melania tweeted today: "It was an honor to meet and have tea with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth ll. @POTUS and I enjoyed the visit and her company very much!"
The social media message was accompanied by four photographs of the visit, including snaps of them with the Queen and guards.
Melania looked every bit the glamorous First Lady as she met the Queen with husband Donald yesterday afternoon.
The Queen beamed as she greeted the US President and his wife.
President Trump and Melania then flew on to Scotland where they now are staying in Trump's Turnberry resort in Aryshire.
Today he is set to have a round of golf and prepare for his key meeting with President Putin on Monday.
Mr Trump said this morning: "I have arrived in Scotland and will be at Trump Turnberry for two days of meetings, calls and hopefully, some golf - my primary form of exercise!
"The weather is beautiful, and this place is incredible! Tomorrow I go to Helsinki for a Monday meeting with Vladimir Putin."

Spare nylons ;D (amongst other practical items.) But I love the idea of nuclear launch codes in her decorative handbags. I like the idea of some kick ass revolver and nuclear launch codes even better though. Maybe security is purposely throwing us off with the list of pragmatic stuff in there that I’ve seen listed as of late. lol
I notice they are quoting “honor”.. as if to suggest that she misspelled it.
Do they think that Brits don’t know we spell it differently?
Hopefully. But I thought it very odd. Has she ever done a visit like that, alone?
Caboose? I thought that was a flatcar.
Beautiful post, Grania.
I agree. Melania may well have been destined to be the inner strength, behind the man who was destined to rescue Western civilization from itself.
Spare nylons. Wet naps. An extra Hankie. Hard candy or Lifesaver mints. Denture Cream. Confiscated sling shot from one of the Peasants.
Important Grandma Stuff. ;)
I'm a native of the southwest US, so I know what some blazing hot weather is like.
I hadn't had a sunburn since I was 13, but I got a bad one when I spent a summer in the south of England at age 36.
Even though that country is at 55° north latitude, the air is so clean, the UV rays just fry you.
Not even. As I recall most Freepers were pretty confident that Trump was rolling towards victory. The lying LSM had most liberals convinced he'd lose, but we knew better.
Don't tell me you forgot all that work we did, trying to calm down the few nervous nellies around here. There weren't that many of them, but man, did they wring their hands day and night.
Does the queen still carry a Beretta 93R in her purse ?
I didn’t see that confidence. Some did not support him until late in the game. Most of the supporters were skeptical of victory. I was confident enough to win a nice bottle of Champagne, hmmm good.
I was walking around over in London one trip over there. Heck, it was about 70 and felt cool so I put on my summer coat. I ended up packing that coat over my shoulders for the entire walk.
Some decades old Doublemint gum. A few bobby pins. A couple very nice, crisply folded hankys. A roll of doggy-doo bags for the royal corgies. And a blackjack.
Is that true? Very smart!
Never be without a Blackjack! ;-)
Wow!
Actually she uses her purse to signal her staff. She usually has it on her left arm. If she switches arms her staff knows she doesn’t want to talk to whoever she is with anymore so they get them away. If she sits it down it means she is ready to leave.
Man, that's too bad. You must have got stuck tending to the whiny babies in the FR Nursery, during the primary ;-)
I was like you. I couldn't see how Trump could lose to Hillary, who was the worst Democrat nominee of all time.
Besides, the odds always favored the White House swinging back to the Republicans. It's almost impossible for either party to hold it for more than two consecutive terms. That's only been done once in the last sixty five years.
