US Vice-President JD Vance has met The Apprentice's Tom Skinner for a barbecue and some beers ahead of his breakfast with Nigel Farage.

President Donald Trump's deputy had spent the weekend with his friend and foreign secretary David Lammy at Chevening in Kent before enjoying the party with Skinner on Monday.

The pair have bonded in recent weeks over social media, culminating in the "invitation" to the event with the vice-president.

Writing on social media this evening, Skinner said: "When the Vice President of the USA invites ya for a BBQ an beers, you say yes.

"Unreal night with JD and his friends n family. He was a proper gent.

"Lots of laughs and some fantastic food. A brilliant night, one to tell the grand kids about mate. Bosh."
