Melania Trump joined Princess of Wales Kate Middleton on Thursday for a visit with the Scouts Squirrels at Frogmore Gardens inside the Windsor Castle estate, a moment many observers noted as the U.S. first lady following the royal's lead in a public-engagement setting.
The pair were guided by Dwayne Fields, Chief Scout, as they walked through the grounds and interacted with two groups of Squirrels, the youngest section of the UK Scouting organization designed for four- to five-year-olds working toward their Go Wild badge. The scene unfolded on the grass as children worked on drawings and crafts, with Kate frequently stooping to speak directly to the youngsters.
