With US-UK relations at their lowest point in 70 years, King Charles will make a state visit to America in just a few weeks’ time.
The potential for this to heap further embarrassment on the monarchy is enormous, not least because the King’s brother, the former Prince Andrew, is still ignoring calls for him to testify in the US over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer famously neutralised Trump with a grandiose invitation to dine with the King on that unprecedented second state visit to the UK - but the good will didn’t last long. And as Trump continues to hurl insults at Britain, many in the UK are angry that the monarch is once again being wielded as an antidote to the President’s tirades.
So, is the King’s visit a good idea? Piers Morgan is joined by Charles’ official biographer Jonathan Dimbleby, historian and author Sir Anthony Seldon, royal commentator Katie Nicholl, News Agents host Jon Sopel and former White House press secretary, Sean Spicer.
