King Charles is bracing for potential drama as US President Donald Trump might go off-script about immigration during his state visit to the UK this September, according to a source.
The concern follows Trump’s unsolicited “advice” to Prime Minister Keir Starmer on the small boat crisis.
On a discreet jaunt to Scotland, Trump warned the Prime Minister about the “bad people” crossing in dinghies and lauded efforts to stop them, reports Daily Express US.

Government officials are now on edge, fearing Trump could flout decorum with politically charged comments during his trip to England.
Trump is expected to give the traditional speech at the state banquet hosted by the King and Queen upon his arrival.

When speaking to The Daily Beast, a source close to the King said: “Charles has spent his entire life promoting tolerance and compassion.”
The source added: “He will be appalled by what Trump said on Friday, which seems to be entirely driven by his domestic agenda, and will be very concerned about the possibility of a repeat of Trump’s outburst in September.”
An insider expressed concern that the US president might spontaneously hold a media interview with political commentary, which could put the King in an awkward position.

They shared: “If Trump starts sounding off about the evils of immigration to the cameras while the King is standing next to him, the King would find that hard to take.”
Donald was in Scotland in August, sharing the stage with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, where he addressed several issues.
He vehemently denied ever visiting Jeffrey Epstein’s private island and dismissed his connection to the case as a “hoax.”

The president asserted that his name wouldn’t be found in the notorious files, which he described as being “run by the worst scum on Earth.”
He told the press: “It’s a hoax that’s been built up way beyond proportion. I can say this: those files were run by the worst scum on Earth.”
“They were run by [former FBI director James] Comey, they were run by (former US attorney general Merrick) Garland, they were run by Biden, and all of the people that actually ran the government.
Charles has shared his concerns with a confidant
“Those files were run by these people. They were run by my enemy. If there was anything in there, they would have used them for the election.”
This came as Fox News viewers proclaimed the “end of MAGA” after Trump seemingly lost his composure during a press briefing.
