The late Princess Diana was an icon. She had so many admirers and suitors and one of them just so happens to be the former U.S President Donald Trump.
According to a new book about King Charles’s life titled The King:The Life of Charles III by Christopher Andersen, the author claims that Trump was extremely interested in Diana following her divorce from Charles.
“It didn’t help that Trump… had aggressively pursued Princess Diana after her divorce – overtures that were rebuffed – and claimed later on a radio programme that he could have ‘nailed her if I wanted to’ but only if she passed an HIV test.”
The programme was a 1997 show with Howard Stern. He also supposedly claimed in the same interview that she sent him a “really nice” letter for a favour he had done for her but did not elaborate on what that was.
In another interview in 2000 on The Daily Beast, Stern asked Trump, “Would you have slept with her?” And his answer was “Without even hesitation”.
In a newspaper report in 2015, Diana had told BBC presenter Selina Scott that Trump had “bombarded her at Kensington Palace with massive bouquets of flowers, each worth hundreds of pounds.”
Trump had also told Scott that he supported Charles in the breakup because Diana sounded like a ‘handful’.
Scott told the Sunday Times that Trump saw Diana as the ultimate trophy wife. She also said that when Diana asked he what to do with such an aggressive suitor, Scott told Diana to throw the flowers in the bin.
Trump told Piers Morgan in 2016 that Scott statements were all false.
“Totally false. It was so false. I liked her. I met her in New York once standing in line, and we were all shaking hands, and that was the only time I ever met her. I read that story that I was calling her something, and it was so false.”
The King: The Life of Charles III will be on sale from Nov 8. 2022.
