WASHINGTON (AP) – Joe Biden has the distinction of being the 13th and final American president to meet with Queen Elizabeth II. Biden first met the queen in 1982. He was a U.S. senator and visiting the United Kingdom with a congressional delegation. Their third and final meeting happened in 2021. Biden, as president, was in southwestern England for a summit of world leaders. He and his wife, Jill, later had a private audience with the queen at Windsor Castle near London. The queen had met every U.S. president since Dwight Eisenhower, except Lyndon Johnson, since ascending to the throne in 1952. Johnson did not visit Britain when he was president.
