A meeting with the King and Queen remains very unlikely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">It is understood there are serious concerns that any comments or remarks in meetings could jeopardise the legal process that is underway following the arrest of Mountbatten-Windsor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Although US Congressman Khanna has rejected this, telling The Times there could be a meeting between survivors and the King without any &#8220;specific facts regarding his brother&#8221; being discussed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The Democrat, who co-sponsored legislation that required the US justice department to release the Epstein files, has already written to the King calling on him to engage with Epstein victims, saying: &#8220;As you are aware, this is not solely an American matter.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The state visit falls only a couple of days after the first anniversary of Giuffre taking her own life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Giuffre was a prominent accuser of Mountbatten-Windsor and her brother and sister-in-law, Sky and Amanda Roberts, have said they &#8220;strongly urge&#8221; the King to &#8220;meet with us and survivors and hear \u2060what we have to say&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The idea of the Epstein scandal becoming part of the state visit would be as uncomfortable for the Trumps as the visiting royals. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The First Lady, Melania Trump, felt it necessary to publicly deny any connection to Epstein, also calling for victims to be able to testify to Congress.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">President Trump has been an enthusiastic supporter of the monarchy and has spoken warmly of the King&#8217;s visit. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">On social media he announced he would &#8220;look forward to spending time with the King, whom I greatly respect.
