President Donald Trump’s wife Melania grabbed attention with her hilarious commentary during King Charles’ royal visit.
The First Lady joked that she gifted extra jars of honey to the British monarch and his wife, Queen Camilla, during their visit to Melania’s White House.
The royal couple concluded their four-day visit to the United States on Thursday with official farewells from Trump and Melania Trump. While House honey quickly became a popular part of the royal visit as Charles and Camilla, both long-time supporters of beekeeping.
Camilla and Charles were in good spirits as they toured the White House hives with their American friends.
During the visit, Melania teased the royals about their honey craving.
This happened after White House deputy pastry chef Carlo Figarella announced that everyone in attendance would go home the next day with one of these little jars of honey.
“We’ll put extra for Their Majesties, won’t we?” the first lady joked.
Mocking her British friends, she added: “Because they like honey.”
The royal dignitaries reacted with a smile. Honey was not only given as a gift to guests, but was also featured prominently in the dishes served at Tuesday night’s state dinner.
The multi-course meal, held in the East Room and attended by approximately 130 guests, including business leaders, legislators and media personalities, featured seasonal ingredients and garden-inspired dishes.
It is worth mentioning here that the British monarch has beehives at her private residence in England and Queen Camilla supports global bee conservation efforts.
