Queen Camilla makes brutally honest confession during US Royal State visit

Queen Camilla made a relatable confession during the ongoing UK state visit to the US, after she and King Charles III touched down across the pond.

The King, 77, and Queen, 78, are in America for a four-day state visit, where they're spending time between Washington DC, New York, and Virginia, with US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

The royal couple arrived on Monday afternoon (27 April) at Joint Base Andrews, near the capital, where they were met by US chief of protocol Monica Crowley and the British ambassador to the US, Sir Christian Turner.

After walking through an honour cordon formed by US military personnel, they headed inside and enjoyed a cup of tea in the Green Room of the White House with Trump.

Later today (28 April), the King is set to make history by addressing a joint meeting of US Congress, marking the second time ever a British monarch has done so, with the first being his mother Queen Elizabeth II in 1991.

However, among their royal itinerary, jam-packed with events, dinners, and engagements, there was a moment of normality that caught people's attention.

After they were formally welcomed to the White House, Charles and Camilla enjoyed a huge garden party at the British Ambassador’s residence, which brought together over 600 guests from the UK and US at the British embassy - starting off small then!

But it looks like Camilla was struggling with the effects of such a long journey, which she admitted while speaking in the ambassador’s library during a presentation of a time capsule marking America’s upcoming 250th anniversary celebrations.

Someone asked the royal about her flight, to which, as per Hello Magazine!, she responded: "I'm slightly jet lagged."

We've all been there, and it's reassuring to know that even the King and Queen aren't immune to the annoyance of transatlantic travel.

And unfortunately for them, instead of getting to sleep it off, they're met with hundreds of fans and cameras.

The royal couple is set to continue their visit today, with the King preparing to make history with his Congress address, where he will call the relationship between the UK and US 'one of the greatest alliances in human history'.

The speech, which is written on the advice of the Government, is expected to last approximately 20 minutes.

The King is also expected to make a brief reference to the gun attack at a Washington DC dinner attended by the US president on Saturday night.

In a show of solidarity and support, he will offer 'the highest regard and friendship of the British people to the people of the United States' on the 250th anniversary of American independence.
