The Spanish Royals Visit the White House
While you were freaking out over the British royals gathering for the Royal Ascot this morning, Spanish royals were touring the U.S. just across the pond. As a part of their official visit to the U.S., King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain stopped by the White House to meet with President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania.
Queen Letizia put a royal spin on Barbie pink in a belted sheath dress and matching heels. The First Lady went for more hushed tones in a neutral floral dress. Their husbands suited up for the meeting.
The two couples are set to have tea at the Red Room of the White House, according to CNN reporter Kate Bennett. However, they stopped for a press conference in the Oval Office first.
"Our relationship has been outstanding over the years and I think especially right now, excellent trade relationship, military relationship, just about everything you can have. So we love Spain and it's really a tremendous honor to have you both at the Oval Office," Trump said at a press conference with the royal couple.
This won't be the only time Trump deals with royals as president. He's also rumored to meet with Britain's Queen Elizabeth II (AKA Prince Harry and Prince William's grandmother) next month. The president's meeting with the Spanish royals takes place in the midst of uproar against his administration's decision to separate families and detain migrant children at the border.
Prior to visiting the White House, Queen Letizia and King Felipe toured San Antonio, Texas and New Orleans, Louisiana, cities with Spanish roots that are celebrating their 300th anniversaries this year, according to the Associated Press.
Queen Letizia, a bonafide royal style icon, has sported a stunning wardrobe throughout her whole U.S. tour, including a polka dot dress at the San Antonio Museum of Art and a maroon chevron dress at the San José Mission.
