Donald Trump was seen breaking royal protocol immediately after his meeting with King Charles and Queen Camilla on Monday afternoon.
The American president and First Lady welcomed the monarchs for a historic state visit on the White House South Lawn before they were all seen heading inside for a reception.

They were then seen turning to head inside, but on the way, Trump gently touched the King's right arm while guiding him through the doors. Sources claim that this is considered to be a breach of the unwritten protocol of never initiating physical contact with any royal.

But this is not the first time that Trump has broken protocol by initiating physical contact with his friend King Charles.
