ROYAL BATTLE: Eric Trump promises to send Prince Harry and Meghan Markle back to Britain after calling them… ‘Bad Apples’ click to read more 

Eric Trump has described Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as “spoiled apples” and offered to “send them back” to Britain in a new interview, as his father continues his bid for reelection in the 2024 presidential race.

Speaking to right wing outlet GB News during a visit to the Trump International Golf Links in Scotland last week, Eric Trump said that his father was a strong ally of the U.K. while going on to praise the monarchy.

“There will be no better ally in the United Kingdom than Donald Trump, I truly mean that,” he said. “He loves this nation he loves this country…he’s going to be the greatest president for the West the U.K.’s ever seen.”

The Trump family, he added, have long-standing relationships with members of the royal family, something interviewer Ben Leo linked back to Harry and Meghan.

Donald Trump has been an outspoken critic of the duke and duchess since their split from the monarchy and move to the U.S. in 2020, saying he’s “not a fan” of Meghan and that she was “very disrespectful” to the royal family and Queen Elizabeth II.

Asked whether his father would be in favor of making Prince Harry’s visa documentation public if he were president—something the Heritage Foundation has pursued through the legal system in the U.S. after Harry revealed he had a history with illegal drugs in his memoir—Eric Trump said he didn’t want to be drawn on the matter, but had a critical assessment of the Sussex couple in general.
