This was the first time in three years that the British court was represented on a state visit to Great Britain. The last state visit took place in 2019 before the corona pandemic, when the ex-president of the United States, Donald Trump, visited Great Britain with his wife, Melania Trump.

Camilla was wearing a blue lace embroidered dress, the insignia of the knighthood and a royal necklace, bracelet and earrings. On her head she wore Queen Elizabeth’s Belgian sapphire tiara, belonging to the same series as the jewelry.
