A new bombshell book has claimed that the late Queen found Trump "very rude"

King Charles' recently retired gardener has been left furious over the latest bombshell book about the late Queen, which claimed that she found Donald Trump "very rude".

In royal author Craig Brown's new book, A Voyage Around The Queen, the commentator claimed that the monarch "particularly disliked" the way the former US president looked over her shoulder as if "in search of others more interesting."


Speaking about the shocking comments Jack Stooks, a gardener to the King who has recently retired was asked whether he feels that it "disrespects her memory."

He said: "I think that this completely does, [disrespect her memory.] There doesn't seem any points or reasons for this to have come about.

“To suddenly start claiming that about somebody who has passed without allowing them to defend themselves and say, ‘well, actually, hang on a minute, that wasn't quite what was said’.

“We know what the Queen was like as a person. We know that in her reign, she never put a foot wrong. So why would she suddenly get to a point in her life where she suddenly goes, ‘oh, let's put my foot wrong?’

“It's not something she would do. It's just ridiculous."

GB News host Patrick Christys then asked him: "What will King Charles be making of seeing these kind of inflammatory things on the front of the Mail, Presumably he'll be quite annoyed about that, won't he?"

The gardener responded: "Oh absolutely. I don't understand why someone would want to bring down the late Queen's way of life.

“Throughout her career, she was amazing. And to have somebody trying to ignite some kind of flames into it, it's not right to do that, especially to the monarchy right now. They’re dealing with so much.”

Patrick also asked him if was common for members of the Royal Family to confide in their staff, and share things that they may not reveal to the public.

He explained: "What we pretend to forget is they are actually a family. So, just like you or I, we might have conversations with people we trust and family and friends and say things that are personal, something as silly as the Queen saying to her daughter, what dress are you going to wear to such and such an event?

"People can overhear things like that and think isn't it great that the Queen was so normal?

That is something that we don't tend to see with the Royal Family, because we see them on show all the time.

"We don't see that. So of course they are going to have personal private conversations."

Queen Elizabeth met Donald Trump for the first time when he was the US president and hosted him and his wife Melania in the UK.

Trump has often spoken about his fondness for the Queen and bragged about his close relationship with the late head of state.

"There are those that say they have never seen the Queen have a better time, a more animated time," he told America's Fox News at the time.
