Several British and US flags were seen on Sunday ahead of King Charles’ visit to the US on Monday. The state visit by Britain’s King Charles III to the US would take place as planned, Buckingham Palace said on Sunday, following a shooting at a Washington media gala.

During the four-day state visit — organised to honour the historic relationship between Britain and the US as America marks 250 years of independence — Charles and Camilla will visit Washington and New York. Charles will become the first British monarch to address Congress since his mother, the late queen Elizabeth II, in 1991, while the royal couple will have tea with Trump and Melania and attend a state dinner.
