THE TELEGRAPH: As Duke of Sussex faces legal battle over his visa status, president takes aim at his ‘terrible’ wife
Donald Trump has ruled out deporting the Duke of Sussex from the US, claiming the royal has “enough problems with his wife”, Meghan, whom he said was “terrible”.
In his first intervention in a long-running legal case, Mr Trump said he had no interest in throwing the 40-year-old Duke out of the country over claims of historic drug-taking, effectively drawing a line under speculation that he might have been prepared to revoke his visa.
The Duke has faced a lengthy legal battle over whether he lied about drug-taking on his application. He admitted to substance use in his autobiography, Spare.
When asked on Saturday by the New York Post if he would intervene, Mr Trump said: “I don’t want to do that. I’ll leave him alone. He’s got enough problems with his wife. She’s terrible.” » | Victoria Ward, Deputy Royal Editor. David Millward, US Correspondent | Saturday, February 8, 2025
