A lip reader has exposed the surprising four-word comment Donald Trump allegedly said to Keir Starmer when he arrived at the White House earlier this week on Thursday (27 February).

The US president and the British prime minister met up to discuss a number of political matters including trade deals, Ukraine's future and Trump's upcoming 'unprecedented' second state visit to the UK

However, before getting mic'd up and officially speaking to reporters at the press conference, Trump appeared to give Starmer a pretty bizarre compliment as he welcomed him in.

According to lip reading expert, Jacqui Press, Trump said 'How are you?! Nice to see you here… good journey?' as Starmer got out of the car.

He then reportedly added 'you look good... handsome' and smiled at the prime minister, Press told MailOnline.

Starmer then nodded in agreement, Press continued, before turning towards Trump and saying: "Thank you sir, let's do this Mr President."

During their meeting, which has since been likened to a scene from the hit 2003 rom-com Love Actually, Starmer presented Trump with a letter from King Charles III that contained an 'unprecedented' request telling him: "This is really special. This has never happened before. This is unprecedented.

"This is truly historic."

The letter in question was inviting Trump to the UK for a second state visit, with the first seeing the late Queen Elizabeth II host the president six years ago back in 2019.

"That's a great, great honour. And that says at Windsor - that's really something," Trump responded as he accepted the invitation from the King, making him the only elected political leader in modern times to be invited to two state visits by a British monarch.

Clearly wooed by the royal family member's 'unprecedented' invite, Trump also took the time to say some nice words about Charles: "He's a beautiful man, a wonderful man - I've gotten to know him very well, actually, first term and now second term.

"We've known each other now for a little while. This is not our first meeting. He loves his country. And so, that's our common theme. He loves his country. And I love our country."

Trump added: "And we also have two countries that have gotten along for the longest period of time. Number one ally on each side. We have France, Australia, a lot of good ones, but we've had a long-time relationship, a long time, hundreds of years."
