Metro53 - WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has said his mother had long admired Britain’s King Charles III, recalling her fondness during remarks at a White House event held in the monarch’s honour
Speaking at the ceremony, President Trump said he remembered his mother frequently expressing admiration for Charles from a young age. “My mother used to say very clearly that Charles was very charming,” he remarked, adding humorously, “She had a crush on Charles — would you believe it?”
The US president further noted that his mother also held affection for Charles’s mother, Queen Elizabeth II. He said she would often comment on the late queen’s elegance whenever she appeared on television.
The remarks were made in a light-hearted tone during the event, drawing attention from attendees and adding a personal touch to the formal proceedings.
