King Charles and Queen Camilla have landed in the US for their state visit on the back of the shooting outside the White House Correspondents' Dinner. 

The 31-year-old suspect, California teacher Cole Allen, is currently appearing in court over the shooting and been charged with attempted assassination of the president. 

The royals are visiting the US for four-days with a bilateral meeting with the President planned. 

Royal Commentator Robert Jobson told Mike Hosking it's hoped Donald Trump and the King can try smooth UK-US relations. 

He says it helps Trump has respect for the royals, because his own mother was Scottish.
