Prince Harry mocks Trump with brutal joke

Prince Harry’s recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert shifted quickly from playful to politically charged.

During a segment joking about Americans’ fascination with royalty, Colbert quipped that the U.S. is “obsessed with royalty.” Harry responded sharply, saying, “Really? I heard you elected a king.”

The audience reacted with boos, highlighting how sensitive the topic of former President Donald Trump remains in public discourse.

Harry’s remark comes amid ongoing tensions with Trump, who has previously stated he “wouldn’t protect” the prince if he returned to the U.S. and suggested Harry could face deportation over visa discrepancies related to past drug use.

Already distanced from much of his own family, Harry appears willing to confront a former, and potentially future, U.S. president publicly.

Observers noted that his joke straddled the line between courageous honesty and risky provocation, demonstrating that Harry is unafraid to enter the contentious arena of U.S. politics despite his status as a royal exile.

Ultimately, the brief exchange underscored Harry’s willingness to speak freely, signaling that he does not intend to shy away from public confrontation, even when it involves high-stakes political figures.
