The visit is scheduled while Parliament is in recess

King Charles III will welcome former President Donald Trump to Britain for an unprecedented second state visit in September, with plans for formal ceremonies at Windsor Castle.

The visit has been carefully timed to coincide with the UK Parliament's recess, avoiding the possibility of Trump addressing lawmakers directly.

Buckingham Palace confirmed the visit will feature traditional state pageantry while also navigating the diplomatic complexities of hosting such a polarizing figure for a rare repeat occasion.
