King Charles III’s upcoming trip to the U.S. is going ahead as planned after Saturday’s shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) dinner, according to Buckingham Palace.

“Following discussions on both sides of the Atlantic through the day, and acting on advice of Government, we can confirm the State Visit by Their Majesties will proceed as planned,” a spokesperson for the palace said Sunday.

“The King and Queen are most grateful to all those who have worked at pace to ensure this remains the case and are looking forward to the Visit getting underway tomorrow,” the spokesperson said.

The British monarchy released the official itinerary for Charles and Queen Camilla’s upcoming trip to the U.S. earlier this month. The couple is set to go stateside for six days, starting Monday in Washington, D.C., and later traveling to New York City and Virginia. A British government source told The Hill that the royal family’s appearances in the U.S. are under review by security services, but their plans were not being changed at the moment.
