Did the Queen 'troll Trump' with her brooches?
The US President's visit to the UK divided the nation with many taking to the streets to protest.
And one Twitter user has suggested that the Queen herself was conducting a protest of her own with the choice of brooches she wore during Donald Trump's time in England.
Despite the fact Her Majesty is strictly neutral when it comes to political matters, social media is convinced otherwise.
Julie (@SamaruiKnitter) took to Twitter to suggest the monarch's choice in brooch during Trump's time in England made a bold statement.
Addressing her 4,000-strong following, Julie said: 'She wore three brooches while she and Trump were both in town. The day he arrived, the day of the banquet, and the day she actually met him for tea. (sic)'
In a new tweet she continues: 'Arrival day was the one that got the most attention. That day, she wore the brooch the Obamas gave her on their last visit to England.
'That by itself is amusing enough. She wore a brooch the Obamas gave her. But it gets better.
'It's not AN American brooch, any would be funny. She chose THIS ONE. This one was purchased out-of-pocket by Michelle and Barack Obama and given to her as a personal gift.'
...
Julie writes: 'And for the day of the tea, QE wore an innocuous 'nice but not holy s***, considering what's in the vaults' diamond brooch she inherited from her mother.
'Jewel watchers nearly died, because it is the brooch worn in the famous "Three Queens in Mourning" photo, worn by the Queen Mum.

Continuing the Twitter thread she explains: 'It's called the Sapphire Jubillee Brooch, and it was given to the Queen of England as a gift for ruling for eleventy billion (okay, 65). From Canada.'
'You know, who Trump's been screaming about and insulting. The commonwealth country and one of the UK's greatest allies. Them.'
Honestly, they're the ugliest brooches I've ever seen.
