The late Queen maintained a strong relationship with the US throughout her 70-year reign and made a number of state visits - the last of which was in 2007.
While she was famed for her longevity, she was also known for her quick wit and excellent sense of humour.
She showcased this numerous times during her Stateside trips - whether it was making President Reagan roar with laughter or joking with President George W. Bush when he accidently aged her by 200 years in a welcoming speech to officials.
