Trump, wearing a signature navy suit with a red tie, was then filmed escorting Charles up some steps to a podium. The men were followed by their wives, both in very light jackets and skirts, paired with white hats for the historic occasion.
The four of them then stood in a line as a live band played before them, with the Great British and United States of America flags blowing in the background.
Charles and Camilla are embarking on a four-day tour to mark the 250th anniversary of the United States of America. Currently, they are in Washington, but are due to visit New York on the third day to commemorate the anniversay of the 9/11 attacks.
Earlier this afternoon, Trump gave a speech about the UK and USA's deep connection as he reflected on Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt meeting on a ship in the North Atlantic "to outline a vision for the free world after World War Two".
Trump said: "That understanding of our nations' unique bond and role in history is the essence of our special relationship, and we hope it will always remain that way.
"Let us go forward with an even stronger resolve to carry on our sacred devotion to liberty and to the traditions of excellence that have been the shared gift of all mankind."
The President also joked that his Scottish mother once "had a crush" on Charles when he was the Prince of Wales.
