A photo showing Donald Trump eating spaghetti in front of King Charles is spreading on social media, but it is not real.
The picture, shared by unverified accounts, appears to show Trump putting a spoonful of spaghetti in his mouth while King Charles watches. During the state banquet at Windsor Castle, Trump was seated between King Charles and Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales.
Social media reactions were quick and mixed. Some joked about Trump “slurping spaghetti” or being “bad at eating spaghetti,” while others doubted the image was genuine.
In fact, the photo is doctored. The official state banquet menu, shared widely online, confirms that spaghetti was not served. The meal included Hampshire watercress panna cotta with parmesan shortbread and quail egg salad, organic Norfolk chicken ballotine wrapped in courgettes with thyme and savory jus, and a dessert of vanilla ice cream bombe with Kentish raspberry sorbet and lightly poached Victoria plums.
Grok, an AI fact-checking tool, also confirmed that the image was either edited or AI-generated as a joke. While Trump did attend the Windsor Castle dinner, there is no evidence of spaghetti being served or eaten.
