Trump Rips into Harry and Meghan as Middle East Tensions Rise
US President Donald Trump has weighed in on the situation surrounding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, stating that he is relieved they have returned to the UK after six years in America. Speaking from the Oval Office on Wednesday, Trump claimed the couple had shown disrespect towards the Royal Family.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped back from their roles as senior working royals in 2020 and relocated to the United States in August of that year. This move followed explosive allegations by Meghan about her experience within the Royal Family, including claims regarding the potential skin tone of their unborn child.
Trump stated that he would not have allowed the couple to return to the UK if he were King Charles III, implying that his views on the matter align with those of the British monarch. Meanwhile, tensions between the US and Iran continue to escalate, with reports of fresh attacks leaving at least 18 people dead and over 100 injured.
Iran has launched missiles and drones towards what it claims are US assets in Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, and Iraq. The conflict raises concerns about global oil supplies, with fears that further attacks could disrupt energy markets.
