King Felipe and Queen Letizia touched down in the U.S. today for the beginning of a brief your.

Their Majesties landed in Louisiana and will then move to San Antonio and Washington, D.C.

They are scheduled to meet with President Trump at the White House on the 19th.

Several articles have appeared in recent weeks pointing out warm relations between the Spanish Royal Household and the gay community.

Indeed, last month, King Felipe congratulated Spanish LGBT publication Shangay on its anniversary.

But that wasn’t the first gesture. After taking over as monarchs, King Felipe and Queen Letizia made a point to invite the LGBT community to royal receptions.

King Felipe was also the first royal to appear on the cover of a magazine geared toward the LGBT community.

His father, King Juan Carlos, approved of legislation legalizing gay marriage in Spain in 2005.

King Felipe and Queen Letizia will meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on June 19th, media outlets are reporting.

Their Majesties will stop by the White House during a tour of several U.S. cities.

The last time the King and Queen were in Washington, D.C., was to meet with President Obama.

The Spanish Royal Household made a strong effort to meet with the Obamas. King Juan Carlos was the first head of state to visit President Obama at the Oval Office.

King Felipe today swore in ministers for the new Spanish government under the Socialist Party.

The ministers took their oath at Zarzuela Palace, without a Bible and crucifix, much like the new prime minister.

King Felipe and Queen Letizia met with Ukrainian Presdient Petro Poroshenko and his wife Maryna at Zarzuela Palace earlier this week.

The King also met at the small palace of La Quinta with Spanish leaders who help steer an advisory board on international relations, a subject His Majesty is keen on.

Queen Letizia was in Brussels in recent days for an European Union development conference.

This week the King also accepted credentials from a variety of new ambassadors to Spain.

New Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez took the oath of office this weekend before King Felipe.

It was the first time a censure motion in parliament changes the country’s leader of government.

The swearing-in was also the first one without a Bible and a crucifix next to the Constitution.

Sánchez, a Socialist, acknowledged the King and pledged loyalty to him, but did not bow as many monarchists do.

King Felipe today signed documents to formalize a change of power in Spain, from Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy to Pedro Sánchez.

Sánchez led a censure motion against Rajoy over corruption allegations. It was the first to succeed in Spanish history.

Congress President Ana Pastor delivered the notice to His Majesty at Zarzuela Palace soon after the vote.

Sánchez will take the oath of office before King Felipe Saturday morning.

Earlier this month, Queen Letizia spent several days in the Dominican Republic and Haiti meeting with leaders there and seeing the results of Spanish aid.

King Felipe in recent days slammed anti-European populists and “nationalist selfishness” during remarks in western Spain.

His Majesty made the comments during an awards ceremony for Antonio Tajani, president of the European parliament.

The comments come amid continued pro-independence rumblings in the Spanish region of Catalonia, and similar instability around the world.

The King, who is deeply in favor of further European integration, was also in Germany recently to an award to French President Emmanuel Macron.

Back in Spain, Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos met with King Felipe and Queen Letizia at Zarzuela Palace.

Santos will soon leave the presidency of Columbia after completing a peace deal with the FARC armed revolutionary movement.
