Elon Musk has finally returned to the White House months after a fallout with the US President Donald Trump.
US President Trump, along with the First Lady Melania Trump, on Tuesday, November 18, hosted a lavish dinner for Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman at White House.
The high-profile personalities, including tech giants, were also part of the Republican president’s black-tie event. Tesla CEO Musk, the founder of Amazon Jeff Bezos, Apple CEO Tim Cook, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang were also in attendance.

As per The Associated Press, the 79-year-old president gave a small tap on the SpaceX founder’s arm as he walked into dinner.
Moreover, Portuguese star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, who is currently playing for Saudi club Al Nassr, also attended the dinner accompanied by his fiancée, Georgina Rodríguez.
Other business executives at the dinner that was attended by about 120 guests included the chief executive of Paramount Global (parent company of CBS and MTV), David Ellison; the chief executive of Chevron, Mike Wirth; General Motors CEO Mary Barra; and the executive chairman of Ford Motor, William Clay Ford Jr.
Trump administration officials, including Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, and Second Lady Usha Vance, were also present at the White House to welcome guests.
