Donald Trump labeled Meghan Markle "terrible," but vowed not to deport Prince Harry over his past drug use—in an unexpected blow to campaigners who say he should not have been admitted to US. Asked whether he would throw Harry out of the country, the president told the New York Post: "I don't want to do that. I'll leave him alone. He's got enough problems with his wife. She's terrible." Trump's comment about Meghan Markle was unprovoked; he was not asked about Meghan Markle at all.

It’s not the first time Trump has hit out at the royal couple - previously suggesting that Harry had been “whipped” by Meghan. And the feeling goes both ways, with Meghan referring to the President as “divisive” and “misogynistic” in the past.
However, Esther Krakue said that it was not necessary for the president to comment on Harry and Meghan but now that he did it's entertaining, hilarious. "I can tell you tell you now that whole Britain was laughing," Krakue said.
The leader of the United States calling (your) wife terrible is hilarious despite their attempt to protect their privacy, the commentator said cheering how gratifying it was.

The couple kissed at the event amidst rumors of divorce and professional separation. While many think this was the best comeback Harry and Meghan had, Meghan-haters said she saw the cameras first and then kissed Harry.

The Prince appeared to address Donald Trump’s comments in a speech at the opening of the Invictus Games in Vancouver, Canada this week, marking the seventh annual competition for veterans and injured armed service personnel.
“At this moment, when there is no shortage of crises, no absence of uncertainty, and no lack of weak moral character in the world, the values you embody - your courage, resilience and humanity - illuminate a path forwards for us all,” Harry said.
The couple also put in a defiant display of PDA in the stands of the sporting event, putting divorce speculation to bed with a cuddly display that one body language expert suggested was a “two-finger salute” to the US President. They reportedly stayed at a £5,000-a-night hotel in Canada, enjoying the luxuries of a private lift and rooftop patio, according to the Daily Mail.

While the question of Prince Harry being deported from the US might seem an abstract one, the Prince’s immigration status has been the subject of recent litigation, with The Heritage Foundation raising concerns about the honesty of his visa application.
The thinktank applied for the government to release the Prince’s visa documents, which ask about drug usage, to see if his admissions lined up with the substances including cocaine and psychedelic mushrooms that he admitted to taking in his 2023 memoir Spare.
A judge ruled in September that his application would remain private, but the case is due to be reopened in federal court this month. The President previously warned that he “wouldn’t protect” Harry from any ensuing legal action.

Harry and Meghan's comeback?
