- President Donald Trump has declared that he’s “happy” Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have officially returned to the United Kingdom with their two children, ending a six-year residency in the United States.
- Trump was asked about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s move during an Oval Office event on Wednesday. “I’m happy about it. I was not a fan,” he replied. “I had a very good relationship with the Queen. Really good. I got to know her very well.”
- He continued, “A really good relationship with King Charles. I knew him as Prince Charles and King Charles. I’ve known him for a long time. He’s great, great guy. And I thought they treated the royal family with great disrespect. I didn’t like it.”
- “I didn’t like the way she acted. I thought she was terribly disrespectful to the Queen, to King Charles. I wouldn’t have taken them back. If I were in the royal family I would not have taken him back.”
- Reports indicate the family plans to stay in the UK for an extended period, with speculation favoring the Cotswolds as a potential home base as they remain non-working royals. The Sussexes have not yet made a public statement regarding their relocation, leaving key details such as their long-term security arrangements and funding unresolved.
