The President of the United States, Donald Trump, indicated he was happy with the return of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to the United Kingdom, after six years living in California, and claimed that, if it had depended on him, the British royal family would not have welcomed them back. The president expressed that he was never a fan of the couple and accused the dukes of Sussex of having treated the royal family with great disrespect. Trump directed his criticisms especially against Meghan, whom he described as extremely disrespectful to the late Queen Elizabeth II and King Charles III.
Harry and Meghan recently returned to the United Kingdom with their children, Archie and Lilibet, and plan to stay there for a prolonged period. However, their return does not imply a reintegration into the official functions of the monarchy: both will continue as inactive members of the royal family and reside privately.
Trump’s statements add to a history of criticisms towards the couple, particularly against Meghan, with whom he has maintained public differences since before she married Harry. The president highlighted the good relationship he maintained with the monarch and the one he preserves with the current king.
The couple’s return to the United Kingdom has generated interest in international press, as it is unknown how their relationship with the royal family will develop in the future. Meanwhile, Trump remains a controversial figure in American politics, known for his controversial statements on various topics.
