Donald Trump has sparked fury by walking in front of King Charles. When the US President met the Royal Family and Windsor Castle, he was slammed for the discourteous act.

Viewers flocked to X to slam the faux pas, with one asking: "Trump walking in front of the King. Is that normal?" A second said: "I see Trump is walking in front of the King. Very cringe." Meanwhile, a third added: "Trump is walking in front of the King. Power move biggly."

As this commenter pointed out, it isn't the first time President Trump has been accused of disrespecting the British monarchy. During his last UK visit, he angered the public by stepping in front of the late Queen and blocking her from cameras.

At the time, one individual commented: "This is just a great depiction of who Donald Trump is. He cares only for himself." Meanwhile, others branded the US leader as "rude and vulgar".
