President Donald Trump flew his own bed linen from the U.S. for his stay in a royal English castle — and courtiers in the ultra-luxurious accommodation think they know why.

Courtiers at Windsor Castle — a home to Great Britain's King Charles — are reportedly joking that Trump wants to avoid leaving stains on the royal bedding from tanning chemicals.

The courtier's theory was shared with the Daily Mail in a report Tuesday as Trump started his first full day of the United Kingdom visit.....

"The president's aides, inspecting his suite in Windsor Castle before his arrival, provided housekeepers with bedding. A courtier muses that it may just be the President not wanting to stain the royal pillows with whatever tanning chemicals he uses to keep his orange hue.

"Below-stairs wags, noting that Melania has a separate suite, joke that if she'd asked for a water bed she could effortlessly drift apart from Donald."
