The Queen met with the Donald Trump on Friday after the US President touched down in Britain on Thursday.

The American leader and the First Lady had afternoon tea with the Queen after they greeted at Windsor Castle at around 5pm.

Former Royal Butler, Grant Harrold, was asked on Sky News how the Queen will end the conversation with Mr Trump.

Mr Harrold explained the Queen will subtly “run the conversation down” to let him know his time is up.

He said: “The conversation will run down and the Queen is a master at this.

“We have seen how good she is. Even, an example, an investiture, when people go to receive that.

“The way that is done obviously so you don’t overrun. The way she offers her hand, and you take the Queen’s hand and she gives you a very gently push.

“That’s how you know you know your time is up.

“That is not going to happen here but the Queen very good at running the conversation down and making sure that he is escorted off the property.”

Huge protests lined the streets of London on Friday as tens of thousands of people raged against Donald Trump’s visit.

During his press conference with Mrs May on Friday, the US President praised his relationship with Britain.

He said: “I give our relationship, in terms of grade, the highest level of special. We start off with special. I would give our relationship with the UK.

“And now, especially after these two days with your Prime Minister, I would say the highest level of special. Now am I allowed to go higher than that? I am not sure. But, it is the highest level of special.

“They are very special people, it is a very special country. As I said, I have a relationship because my mother was born in Scotland, so very important to me.”
