Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are once again at the center of controversy after a stern message appeared to be aimed at them during former U.S. President Donald Trump's recent visit to the UK. The remarks have triggered fresh backlash against the couple, who left royal life in 2020 to start a new chapter in the United States.
Former President Trump’s Subtle Dig Raises Eyebrows
While in Scotland, Trump praised the British royal family, calling them "great people" and describing the UK as "very lucky" to have them. Though not directly naming Prince Harry or Meghan Markle, the comments were interpreted by many as a stern message suggesting disapproval of the couple’s departure and public criticism of the monarchy—especially their explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey.
Social Media Reacts Swiftly to the Shade
Online, royal watchers were quick to catch on. Many felt Trump’s statements were thinly-veiled jabs directed at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. One fan wrote, “I love the shade President Trump throws at them,” while another added, “He’s the best at it!” The moment fueled another wave of backlash as critics accused the Sussexes of abandoning their royal duties and disrespecting their British heritage.
Friction Between Harry, Camilla, and the Royal Family
The tension doesn’t end with Trump’s remarks. Prince Harry also caused waves with his memoir, where he expressed his opinions about Queen Camilla, calling her "the other woman" and even a "villain." These revelations reportedly led King Charles to ask Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to vacate Frogmore Cottage, their former UK residence.
The Memoir That Added Fuel to the Fire
In his book, Harry details personal struggles, his relationship with his family, and the journey with Meghan Markle. However, his candid criticism, especially of Camilla and his father, ignited fresh backlash and likely contributed to the growing divide within the royal household.
Trump’s Royal Allegiances Highlight Sussex Rift
Trump, who has spoken fondly of the late Queen Elizabeth, emphasized the value of the current royal lineup, reinforcing support for King Charles and Queen Camilla. Many see this as another stern message aimed at distancing the Sussexes from the respected royal fold, fueling speculation about their place—or lack thereof—in future royal engagements.
A Storm That Continues to Follow the Sussexes
Whether intentional or not, the timing and tone of Trump’s remarks have once again placed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the spotlight. The backlash continues, and the couple seems to remain a divisive topic in both British and American media, with each stern message reigniting public debate.
