MELANIA Trump has joined the Royal Family at the state banquet – dressed in a standout off-the-shoulder butter dress and pink belt.

The much-anticipated meal will host 160 VIP guests including PM Sir Keir Starmer, King Charles and Princess Catherine.
It follows a packed day where the US leader paid an emotional visit to St George’s Chapel, the burial site of the late Queen.
Melania beamed as she stood next to her husband Donald Trump, posing for a picture alongside the diamond-clad Royals.
She appeared radiant in a yellow, long-sleeved dress which was cinched at the waist with a baby-pink belt.
Leaning to one side, she posed for photos looking relaxed in the Royal residence.
Not to be outdone, Camilla wore a Royal blue silk marocain embroidered dress, a sapphire and diamond tiara, and the King’s Family Order.
Prince William and Princess Kate were also seen dressed exquisitely as they made a spectacular entrance at the opulent banquet.
The Princess of Wales donned a gold sparkling gown while Wills looked typically smart in his royal uniform.
Earlier today, Trump – who was known to have huge affection for Queen Elizabeth – movingly laid a wreath at her tomb and said it was a “huge honour” after he was allowed ten minutes there.
The late monarch hosted the Trumps for a state dinner six years ago.
The Trumps and the Starmer’s joined the King and Queen to watch an amazing display by the Red Arrows this afternoon.
The dreary skies provided a backdrop for the stunning red, white and blue smoke, delighting the US leader as he grinned and clapped.
But the flypast of F-35s was sadly cancelled because of the bad weather.
The group watching from a raised platform looked slightly windswept in the autumn weather – but Trump and Charles still chatted animatedly.
The Trumps will stay overnight in the 1,000-year-old castle as guests of the King and Queen.
Pomp and pageantry was out in full force this morning, with the scale and spectacle of the military ceremonial on show for Trump unprecedented.
Earlier today, a lip reader has told The Sun that Trump greeted William as “my friend” as he arrived this morning, before saying to Kate: “Hello, beautiful.”
The President asked after the Wales children, with Wills replying that they’re doing well and are at school.
The American couple joined the royal family for a scenic carriage ride through the green parkland to the castle.
Charles and Trump seemed deep in conversation as they rode next to each other in their 172-year-old carriage during the spectacular procession.
Queen Camilla and US First Lady Melania Trump also travelled side by side, followed by Kate and Wills.
Some 120 horses and 1,300 members of the British military were involved in the elaborate welcome at Windsor which featured the largest ever Guard of Honour for this occasion.
There was obvious warmth between the King and Trump as they laughed and appeared deep in conversation while walking together.
The President appeared delighted when he was invited to inspect the guard of honour – thanking the commanding officer four times.
Charles joked “watch the sword” as a warning to the US President when the captain raised his blade to signal the end of the inspection.
The King and Queen were later pictured showing Trump and Melania a special display of items from the Royal Collection relating to the US.
