President Biden and first lady Jill will meet with Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle, the White House confirmed Thursday morning.
The commander-in-chief and his wife will be welcomed by the monarch on Sunday, June 13, the final day of his visit to the United Kingdom for the G7 summit, marking the first leg of his three-country trip to Europe.
The Group of Seven summit — scheduled to run from June 11 to 13 in Cornwall, about 300 miles west of London — will mark the US president’s first overseas trip since taking office in January.
It will also mark the Queen’s first major engagement since the death of her husband, Prince Philip, who passed away at 99 years old in April.
It is not clear if Her Majesty will be joined by other members of the royal family.
With the exception of President Lyndon B. Johnson, the queen has met with every US president since the start of her reign in 1952.
Biden’s predecessor, Donald Trump, met with the queen in July 2018, and he and his family paid a state visit the following year.
There have been 14 US presidents over the course of the queen’s reign.
