Trump previously visited the UK in July 2018. During the trip, he met with Prime Minister Theresa May at Chequers, and with the Queen at Windsor Castle.
The visit was not without controversy though - tens of thousands of protestors filled the streets in London to voice their dislike of the US President. Two large marches took place, one organised by Women's March London and another by the Stop Trump Coalition.
Memorably,
a big inflatable baby Donald Trump in a nappy was flown over the capital.

Protests also took place in Edinburgh and in Turnberry, where Trump owns a golf course.
10,000 police officers were needed to cover Trump's visit in 2018, and estimates from the National Police Chiefs' Council say that the police operation cost nearly £18m.
