Donald Trump’s intimate gesture toward Melania, in front of King Charles and Queen Camilla sparks major backlash

King Charles III and Queen Camilla received a full ceremonial welcome with a 21-gun salute after landing in Washington, D.C

Another agreed: “I’ve done that to my girlfriend before it’s just a habit when you’re comfortable with someone – doesn’t seem like a big deal to me.”

This isn’t the first time since the King and Queen landed in the US that Trump has come under fire for his hotly-debated hand gestures.

The American leader also came under fire for placing a hand firmly on Charles’ arm after the British monarch emerged from his vehicle, as if to be pulling the 76-year-old royal purposefully in his directio, after which he was accused of breaking major rules.
