I feel very bad: Trump on King Charles stripping Andrew of royal titles

US President Donald Trump said Sunday he felt "badly" for the UK royal family after King Charles III revoked his brother Andrew's title of prince over his scandalous ties to late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

"I feel very badly. I mean, it's a terrible thing that's happened to the family," Trump said when asked by an AFP reporter aboard Air Force One about the recent saga.

"That's been a tragic situation, and it's too bad. I mean, I feel badly for the family."

Trump, 79, has faced his own political woes in recent months over his own alleged relationship with Epstein, the New York financier and who died in prison in 2019.
