Former President Donald Trump recently commented on the controversial photograph of Catherine, Princess of Wales, and her children, which was recalled by major news agencies due to alleged editing. Trump downplayed the significance of the editing, stating that such alterations are common in the media industry. He compared it to the retouching done on photos of movie actors, emphasizing that it was a minor issue that shouldn't have caused a stir.
The photograph in question was released by Kensington Palace to mark Mother's Day in the UK, but concerns were raised by photo agencies about potential editing. Subsequently, four major agencies issued 'kill notices' for the image. The controversy escalated when Getty Images revealed that another photo taken by the Princess of Wales had also been digitally enhanced in multiple places.
During the interview with Britain's GB News, Trump also addressed Prince Harry, suggesting that if Harry had lied about past drug use on his US visa application, appropriate action should be taken. Trump emphasized that being a member of the British royal family should not grant special treatment, indicating that Harry's residency in the US could be at risk if discrepancies were found in his visa application.
Trump's comments come amidst ongoing legal action by the conservative Heritage Foundation to investigate the US government's handling of Harry's visa application. US immigration law considers past drug use as a potential reason for visa rejection, and Harry's admission of drug use in his memoir has raised questions about the accuracy of his visa application.
