King Charles and Queen Camilla are headed across the pond this April following speculation over whether a US State Visit would go ahead. This will be the first trip of its kind by a British monarch since Queen Elizabeth’s tour in 2007 and President Donald Trump has described it as a "momentous occasion".
The announcement has already attracted considerable attention and scrutiny, with some calling for it to be postponed amid the Middle East conflict. Global events will of course loom large and provoke plenty of discussions, but I can’t help feeling that the State Visit could be overshadowed by a rather important family moment too.
