"The CSPAN footage, unearthed by the Daily Beast, shows the first couple emerging from the presidential helicopter on the South Lawn of the White House, with Trump's right hand clutching his wife's left. But in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, the first lady can be seen pulling her left hand away and looking away from her husband as she tries to walk on her own, as the Daily Beast said."
"A visibly exasperated Trump immediately looks downcast because his attempt to demonstrate affection towards his wife has been rejected in front of a pack of White House press cameras, as the Daily Beast said. The president initially tries to act for the cameras like it's no big deal by giving a weak wave. But he then appears to remonstrate his wife, as he firmly grabs her hand again as they walk the rest of the way to the White House."
"This possible tiff about hand-holding comes amid reports that the Trumps demanded separate bedroom suites in Windsor Castle during their visit last week with King Charles III and other members of U.K. government. The Trumps managed to successfully hold hands after arriving by helicopter at Windsor Castle on Marine One on Sept. 17 and being greeted by Prince William and Kate Middleton."
