The British Royals are visiting the United States again, but this time, it's Prince Charles and his wife, Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall. The royal couple is expected to stay for four days in the States to underscore the relationship of Britain with America.
Prince Charles' office made an announcement on Friday that they will be first dropping by Washington, D.C. and then Kentucky. They will arrive on March 17 and depart on March 20, at the request of the British government.

The White House responded to the royals' announcement and shared that both the President and Vice President of the United States, will be hosting them on March 19 in the Oval Office.
It was also confirmed that Prince William, wife, Kate, Duchess of Cambridge and their son, Prince George, won't be visiting along with them, much to the dismay of fans, because the Duchess is scheduled to give birth to their second child sometime in April.
William and Kate may have only been to the United States twice, but Prince Charles' arrival on March will mark his 20th visit and the third for Camilla.
The couple's schedule is reportedly packed with visits to historical places, as Charles, who is overly fond of history, want to take a trip to the National Archives so he can see the Charters of Freedom and the 1297 version of the Great Charter, which is now exemplified in the American Constitution and Bill of Rights.
They will also take a trip to President Washington's Mount Vernon, where he and his sister, Princess Anne have visited in 1970. Aside from that, they will also visit the Armed Forces Retirement Home where they will meet with veterans to observe the 150th anniversary of the death of President Lincoln, as well as the end of the Civil War.
Camilla, who is known for helping victims of sexual abuse, also scheduled a meeting with the Sexual Assault Response Team of the District of Columbia.
They will conclude their visit on Louisville, Kentucky, where The Prince of Wales will deliver a speech about the impact of the natural environment to our health and vice versa and where Camilla will visit a project for young people about food literacy at a local farm.
