London: US President Donald Trump was rescued by his wife Melania from an embarrassing situation when he failed to recognize a statue at Buckingham Palace that he had gifted to Queen Elizabeth Il last year. Trump was shown a pewter horse that he gave as a gift when they met in July 2018, and was asked whether he recognized it. Looking a bit puzzled, he replied "no", the Independent reported. First Lady Melania quickly came to his rescue, saying: "I think we gave that to the Queen." He had given the thoroughbred statue in polished pewter on his visit to Windsor.
