Eric Trump tells UK to take ‘spoiled apples’ Prince Harry, Meghan Markle back: US doesn’t ‘want them anymore’
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wouldn’t have a home in the United States if it were up to Eric Trump.
Trump, 40, labeled the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who have lived in California since 2020, as “spoiled apples” and hinted that dad Donald Trump may deport them if re-elected this November.
“You can happily have those two [Meghan and Harry] back,” he told GB News Sunday. “We’ll happily send them back from America.”
“You can have them back over here, but I’m not sure if you want them anymore,” Eric jokingly added. “We might not want them anymore, it feels like they’re on an island of their own.”

While Eric praised the royal family as a “beautiful” and “sacred Institute,” he seemingly hinted at Markle’s past acting career, saying there can be “bad actors” and “spoiled apples in any orchard.”
Eric’s famous father also previously suggested that Harry and the American-born actress may have to relocate after the red-headed royal admitted to taking drugs in the States in his memoir, “Spare.”
During a March interview with GB News, Donald said Harry should not have “special privileges” and “appropriate action” must be taken if he lied on his US visa application.

One month earlier, the former president told his supporters at the CPAC that he “wouldn’t protect” Harry.
“He betrayed the queen. That’s unforgivable,” Donald said. “He would be on his own if it was down to me.”
In 2022, the former reality TV star told Piers Morgan that he is “not a fan” of Markle and believes their marriage will “end bad.”
“[Harry] has been so disrespectful to the country and I think he’s an embarrassment,” the 78-year-old said.

Despite taking aim at Harry, 39, and Markle, 43, Eric said he and his father have nothing but “love” for the rest of the royals.
“What I can tell you is, my father had so much respect for the Queen, as did I,” he said of Queen Elizabeth II, who died in 2022, during his interview with the British cable network.
The former president met with the royal family numerous times during his time in the Oval Office from 2017 to 2021, with Queen Elizabeth hosting a state banquet for Donald during his visit to the UK in 2019.
Eric also claimed that his late mother, Ivana Trump, “had a great relationship” with Harry’s mom, Princess Diana.

Although Eric spoke highly of Diana and the royal family, Donald previously claimed he “could have” slept with the People’s Princess, who died in 1997 from a car crash.
It was reported in 2015 that the then-businessman pursued Dianna following her split from now-King Charles in 1992.
However, Diana reportedly told a friend that Donald gave her “the creeps” and the pair never dated.
Diana’s brother, Charles Spener, reiterated his sister’s unsatisfactory feelings about the 45th president after he claimed in his book “Letters to Trump” that she was one of the celebrities who “kissed [his] ass.”

In response, Spencer claimed on social media that his sister viewed Trump “as worse than an anal fissure.”
Although Donald’s relationship with Diana was rocky, he and Charles built a cordial relationship over the years.
The King sent a personal letter to Donald after the former president survived an assassination attempt last month.
While the contents of the letter were never revealed, it was reportedly similar to UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s statement, which slammed the “appall[ing]” attack and wished Donald a speedy recovery.
