• Senior British royals, including King Charles and Prince William, are reportedly being considered for a U.S. tour to mark the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in 2026.
• The visit is seen as a potential diplomatic effort to reinforce the 'special relationship' between the U.K. and the U.S. during Donald Trump's second term as president.
