He's an awful human being.

Now ex-President Donald Trump has long had a rather tumultuous and strained relationship with the Royal family, despite his incessant and hilarious claims that he was BFFs with the Queen before her recent death.

However, new reporting on an upcoming book has brought one particular incident back to the surface that allegedly left the British Royals in fits of “profanity” aimed at the scandal-ridden, has-been reality TV “star” and real estate mogul turned disgraced former US president.

Author Christopher Andersen’s upcoming book, The King: The Life of Charles III, takes a new look at the 2012 scandal when the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton found topless photos of herself plastered across the internet and around the world after a Danish tabloid photographer crashed her honeymoon with Prince William on a private beach and proceeded to publish the new photos — before the ink had barely dried on the couple’s marriage certificate.

The leaked private photos alone were enough to send the British Royal family into a tizzy, but according to Andersen’s book, it was Donald Trump’s immature public remarks on the matter that truly ruffled the royal feathers.

Taking to his beloved Twitter account (that he no longer has these days,) Trump wrote on the scandal, “Kate Middleton is great – but she shouldn’t be sunbathing in the nude – only herself to blame. Who wouldn’t take Kate’s picture and make lots of money if she does the nude sunbathing thing? Come on Kate!”

This sent the Royal family into fits of “profanity” and fury, especially considering Donald Trump had already been busted for declaring that he could have “nailed” the late Princess Diana — provided, of course, that she would get tested and prove to him that she didn’t have HIV.

Newsweek obtained and reported on an advanced copy of the upcoming book:

The former U.S. president sparked ‘torrents of profanity’ from Charles, Prince William and Prince Harry after he said that Kate Middleton had ‘only herself to blame’ for topless photographs taken without her consent and published in French magazine Closer.

Trump also left Charles ‘disappointed’ after referring to him as the ‘Prince of Whales,’ spelled like the sea mammals, rather than the ‘Prince of Wales,’ author Christopher Andersen wrote in The King: The Life of Charles III. Trump suggesting that he ‘could have nailed’ Princess Diana, if he had wanted to, also ‘didn’t help.'”

In one excerpt from his upcoming book, Anderson wrote, “It didn’t help that Trump had aggressively pursued Princess Diana after her divorce—overtures that were rebuffed—and claimed later on a radio program that he could have ‘nailed her if I wanted to,’ but only if she passed an HIV test.”

The author goes on to write in the book that the Royal Family desperately looked for a way out of hosting a visit Trump was set to make to the UK upon his election to the presidency — a visit that never ultimately took place.
