Royal fans cheer Trump seemingly ‘throwing shade’ at Prince Harry, Meghan Markle

Royal fans applauded a thinly veiled swipe that President Trump appeared to take at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle after gushing over other members of their family, including King Charles and Queen Camilla.

The commander in chief spoke fondly about the royals during a Monday press conference with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Scotland — but appeared to raise several eyebrows after making a tongue-in-cheek remark about some “not great people” outside the UK.

“Being with Charles, Camilla and everybody, I’ve got to know because of four years [as President] and now six months,” he said.

“I’ve got to know a lot of the family members. They are great people. They are really great people,” Trump continued.

“And in that sense, I think the UK is very lucky, you could have people that weren’t great people. I don’t know if I can say that, but you could have people that weren’t.”

While Trump didn’t mention the Duke and Duchess of Sussex by name, his recent frosty remarks about the couple prompted royal fans to rush to social media and fuel speculation that his words were pointed at the “Spare” author, 40, and “Suits” alum, 43.

“I love the shade President Trump throws at Prince Harry & Meghan Markle,” one person wrote on X.

Another added, “He is the best at throwing shade!!”

“Trump has no problems calling them out,” a third wrote, while another added, “Lol. Gotta love the shade.”

Trump has made his admiration for the royal family known on many occasions, saying in March that he “loves King Charles.”

As for his thoughts on the Sussexes, Trump exclusively revealed to The Post in February that he ruled out deporting Harry from the US over his drug admission, simply because he’s already “got enough problems” with the As Ever founder.

“I don’t want to do that,” POTUS said. “I’ll leave him alone. He’s got enough problems with his wife. She’s terrible.”

Trump, who is gearing up to return to the UK in September for his second state visit, also described the Invictus Games founder as “whipped” by the former actress, who previously called the president “divisive” and “misogynistic.”

“I think poor Harry is being led around by the nose,” Trump told us in February.

Aside from Harry and Markle’s decision to publicly back Democrats in previous elections, the self-exiled duo, who wed in 2018, went a step further by injecting more than $630,000 into a slew of left-leaning groups.

The couple, who currently reside in Montecito, Calif., after quitting royal life in 2020, made their largest payment in 2023 when they emptied their pockets by donating $250,000 to Joe Biden’s daughter, Ashley Biden, to help fund her women’s wellness center.
