Letters written by Natalie Harp, a close aide to US President Donald Trump, in which she professes complete devotion and shares intimate feelings with the commander-in-chief, have sparked concerns over their relationship even among Trump’s team, according to a recent report.

The two letters, written around the time of Trump’s visit to Scotland and Ireland in 2023, were received from sources within the president’s 2024 campaign by Michael Wolff, author of “All or Nothing,” a best-selling book about the campaign. They were then published in full by The Daily Beast.

They were written when Harp was 31, and the then-former president was 76.

“If there is anything else I have done to cause you trouble, please forgive me,” she said. “I want things to always be right between us. I also know I’ve been distracted all week (forgetting to eat throughout the days, and even forgetting to sleep, and only catching a couple hours at a time).”

Harp admitted to “letting the remarks of people who haven’t bothered me before, get to me — not because I care what others think, but because I see myself being lowered in your eyes and good opinion.

“That is the fear, you see, because I never want to bring you anything but joy. I’m sorry I lost my focus. You are all that matters to me. I don’t want to ever let you down. Thank you for being my Guardian and Protector in this life,” she wrote,........
