CBS News senior White House reporter Jennifer Jacobs shared her snapshot of the already-viral photo straight from AP's Jacquelyn Martin's camera.
"Trump patted the first lady on the tooshie during arrival ceremony for king and queen. My photo of AP's Jacquelyn Martin's capture of the moment," Jacobs posted on X.
On Tuesday, Trump was captured shaking King Charles' hand before awkwardly placing his hand on the first lady's back. But shortly after he does so, he slides his hand down and squeezes his wife's butt - just one day after Trump was slammed for a "disrespectful" gesture to Queen Camilla. Itcomes after a bizarre bulge was spotted in Trump's pants - leading to an alarming accusation.
Almost as if he realized what he did, the president quickly swiped his hand away before giving Melania one more pat on the back, this time on her waistline. He then removes the hand altogether and shakes the King's hand once more. It comes after a bizarre bulge was spotted under Trump's pants - leading to an alarming accusation.
Trump and Charles greeted each other warmly on Tuesday as the monarch began a day of diplomacy in Washington designed to emphasize a bond between the United Kingdom and the United States that is so strong it can withstand the political turmoil of the moment.

Trump welcomed Charles and Camilla to the White House in a ceremony on the South Lawn. The king shook hands with members of Trump's Cabinet before joining the president for a rendition of the national anthem.
The leaders will huddle later in the Oval Office for a meeting that's closed to the public, reducing the potential for the freewheeling, sometimes controversial meetings with foreign officials that have become routine during Trump's second term.
