I'm sure if the Queen had anything to do with it, he wouldn't be invited. He's annoyed Prince Charles with his outdated denialist views on climate change and been sexist towards the Duchess of Cambridge. And that's before he's set foot in Buckingham Palace!
If you listened to the reception that Bercow's decision got, and Trump was your client, you would be grateful he was not invited to address Parliament. It would be potentially humiliating for Trump and it would not be constructive to US-UK relations. I'm sure far worse people have addressed the UK Parliament but for many reasons, the US president is judged far more critically. I guess that's an element of the special relationship that Theresa May was talking about.
