Included in the footage was a cordial meeting at the White House where the King and Queen shared tea and biscuits with the president and first lady. The royal caption celebrated America’s milestone: "Happy 2️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ to the United States!" and noted the April State Visit was in recognition of the anniversary.
King Charles also sent a formal letter to President Trump and the American people, calling the 250th a "truly historic milestone" and praising the U.K.-U.S. relationship as an "extraordinary evolution" from past conflict to a close alliance. He highlighted shared values—liberty, the rule of law and human dignity—and signed off "Charles R."
