In the latest news, a newly released biography on Queen Elizabeth II has stirred up some interesting claims about her thoughts on former President Donald Trump. According to author Craig Brown, in his book "A Voyage Around The Queen," the Queen considered Trump to be quite rude and even questioned his marriage to Melania Trump.
In one excerpt from the book, published in the Daily Mail, Brown writes: "A few weeks after President Trump's visit, for instance, she confided in one lunch guest that she found him 'very rude.' She particularly disliked how he constantly looked over her shoulder, as if searching for someone more interesting. She also speculated that Trump must have some sort of arrangement with his wife Melania, otherwise why would she stay married to him?"
Trump and the Queen had multiple encounters, but only one official state visit in 2019. The pair also had tea together at Windsor in 2018. Trump even boasted about their "great relationship" in an interview with Fox News, saying, "We were laughing and having fun. And her people said she hasn't had so much fun in 25 years. Then I got criticized for it because they said we were having too much fun... I feel like I know her so well and she certainly knows me very well, but we have a very good relationship with the United Kingdom."
However, Trump's re-election campaign communications director, Steven Cheung, has slammed the claims made in the book, calling it "fake news" and "salacious fabrications" meant to sell copies. But regardless of the truth, it is clear that Trump held the Queen in high regard. In fact, moments after news of her death was announced, he wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social, "What a grand and beautiful lady she was - there was nobody like her!"
The Queen reportedly also had some thoughts on Trump's marriage to Melania. During his state visit in 2019, she wore a brooch given to her by former President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle, leading many to interpret it as a subtle sign of disapproval towards Trump. And during his 2018 visit, Trump made headlines for committing a social faux pas by walking in front of the Queen.
Trump and his wife, Melania, were "deeply saddened" by the Queen's passing and expressed their condolences to the Royal Family and the people of the United Kingdom. However, it is unclear if the Queen reciprocated the affection. Many believe that the protests and the 20-foot blimp depicting a nappy-clad Trump over Trafalgar Square during his visits were a clear indication of the public's disapproval towards the former president.
