After a shocking assassination attempt on former President Trump, Kate Middleton’s name became entangled in the aftermath, even though she had no direct involvement. The incident occurred during a rally in Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, where a 20-year-old man named Thomas Matthew Crooks fired three shots, grazing Trump’s right ear. Curiously, it was revealed that Crooks had saved photos of Middleton on his phone leading up to the event.
Trump’s Assassin Had an Interest in Kate Middleton
Thomas Matthew Crooks’ motives for attempting to assassinate Trump remain unknown. However, investigations revealed his possession of images of not only Trump but also Joe Biden and Kate Middleton on his electronic devices. This peculiar fascination with famous figures raised concerns about his mental state and intentions. The Royal Family refrained from commenting on the incident, although reports stated that King Charles sent a private letter to Trump via the U.K. embassy in Washington, D.C.
Is Heightened Security Necessary for the Royal Family?
The incident involving Crooks has raised concerns about the security of the Royal Family, prompting a reevaluation of their accessibility to the public. Royal commentator Rafe Heydel-Mankoo highlighted the potential risks faced by members of the Royal Family and urged a review of their security measures. Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, residing in the U.S., expressed fears for their safety following the assassination attempt on Trump, considering their reduced security arrangements after stepping down as senior royals.
