Harry & Meghan wedding bishop is fighting cancer

Tweedle-dumb Eric is poll-axed by the sums

THE American bishop who stole the show at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding has revealed he has prostate cancer.

Michael Curry, 65, kept the news quiet before he delivered his rousing sermon on May 19. But he has remained upbeat and will have his prostate gland removed on Tuesday. Bishop Curry, who presides over the US branch of the Anglican church, wrote in an open letter: “I am happy to say the prognosis looks very good.”

He added: “I am very blessed with a wonderful family, a first-rate medical team, a great staff, dear colleagues and friends. So, do say a prayer.” He hopes to return to work in September. During his fiery address to 600 guests at Windsor Castle, which left some royals looking a bit bemused, the Chicagobor­n cleric said: “We must discover the power of love. Love is the only way.”

He closed by saying: “We’re going to sit down, we gotta get y’all married!” One half of America’s Tweedledum and Tweedledee showed once again why the eldest Trump siblings are known as the Brothers Dim.

Eric Trump seemed to celebrate a poll showing most Americans disapprove of his father’s performanc­e. Using a series of American flag emojis, the president’s son linked to a tweet showing Trump’s approval rating had risen ever so slightly to 45%, the highest mark of his presidency.

However, 52% still disapprove­d of his actions. Someone needs to explain basic maths to Eric. But to put it simply for him – more than half the country doesn’t like the job your daddy is doing. He is one of the worse performing presidents ever.
