Queen Camilla & Melania Trump

While both Queen Camilla and Melania Trump appear to enjoy each other’s company, they aren’t particularly close, Elizabeth Holmes explained.

“I don’t know of any sort of established relationship between the first lady and the queen, nor do I think there necessarily has to be one,” the royal author told CNN. “This, to me, feels very much like the first lady and the queen are going through the motions of what their role requires.”

Although meetings and more informal conversations between the Trumps and the royals have taken place, other, more formal events were also scheduled. Just as during the September state visit in the U.K, this time, Donald Trump wanted to give the monarch something extra.

At the White House South Lawn on Tuesday, a ceremonial military review took place. It represents the highest honor that the U.S extends to any visiting head of state.

However, the sunny weather from Monday had moved on. Instead, it turned rainy, perhaps what someone would call “British weather.”

Lip reader reveals Queen Camilla’s ‘naughty’ remark to Melania

Donald and Charles were seated next to each other, while Camilla and Melania sat together on the other side of the small stage. It was then that Queen Camilla made a very British remark to Melania, which left the first lady stunned.

Speaking with the Daily Mail, lip-reading expert Nicola Hickling revealed that when they prepared to sit down, the queen said, “Oh, it’s rather wet.”

Melania agreed and responded that it “certainly is,” before the two shared a laugh. Then, Queen Camilla instantly replied, “We shall have soggy bottoms,” referring to the damp chair cushions they were sitting on.

The first lady was stunned, not understanding. Seemingly confused, Melania said, “What did I just hear? before asking Camilla, “Soggy bottoms?”

The phrase “soggy bottom” originated in the television show The Great British Bake Off, where it’s often used humorously. Queen Camilla is known to be a fan of the show. Who knows, maybe Melania will give the show a go as well?
