Late Queen and Diana both ‘kissed my backside’ in their letters, claims Trump

- By David Millward US CORRESPOND­ENT

QUEEN ELIZABETH II and Diana, Princess of Wales were among prominent figures who “kissed my a--” in letters, Donald Trump has claimed.

The former president plans to publish a book of correspond­ence he received before and during his time in the White House.

Publicisin­g the book on Breitbart, the Right-wing website, he said: “I think they’re going to see a very fascinatin­g life. I knew them all – and every one of them kissed my a--.”

Letters to Trump will be his second book since leaving office. The first, Our Journey Together, was a collection of photograph­s from his time as president.

Letters to Trump contains 150 letters from a range of prominent figures such as the Royal family, as well as senior political figures including former presidents Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, George H W Bush, Bill Clinton, George W Bush and Barack Obama. There is also correspond­ence from Xi Jinping, the Chinese president, Kim Jong-un, the North Korean leader, and Jair Bolsonaro, the former Brazilian president.

Donald Trump Jr, Mr Trump’s son, told Breitbart that he had correspond­ed with some of the world’s most interestin­g people: “It’s amazing how quickly their adoration of him changed when he ran for office as a Republican.

“Letters to Trump shows you exactly how they felt about him and how phoney their newfound disdain truly is.”

Mr Trump’s links with the late Princess date back to the mid-nineties when they occasional­ly met at charity events.

They shared a table, along with Marla Maples, his second wife, at a dinner in which the Princess was named United Cerebral Palsy Humanitari­an of the Year.

Mr Trump was reportedly smitten with the princess, offering her membership in Mar-a-lago, which she declined.

According to Selina Scott, the broadcaste­r, Mr Trump sent huge bouquets to Kensington Palace following the Princess’s divorce.

Ms Scott added: “It had begun to feel as if Trump was stalking her.”
