President Donald Trump and Queen Elizabeth have a very friendly relationship–and the Queen isn’t afraid to scold members of her own family for not treating the Trumps with respect.
93-year-old Queen Elizabeth gave the stink eye to her daughter, Princess Anne, for not greeting Trump and his wife First Lady Melania Trump when they visited Buckingham Palace. The First Family from the US was there after spending the day at the NATO summit in London.

The Queen gave the Trumps a warm greeting with her oldest son, Prince Charles, and his wife Camilla. Charles is the heir to the throne.
As Trump chatted with Elizabeth, Charles, and Camilla, Princess Anne was standing awkwardly in the doorway–she didn’t greet the president or his wife.
The Queen saw her daughter being rude, and did not look amused. Anne looked at her mother, shrugged, and awkwardly laughed.
The exchange quickly went viral online.
