Trump wanted Princess Diana as 'trophy wife': Newscaster

Donald Trump was reportedly on the hunt for "the ultimate trophy wife" when he turned his sights on Princess Di in 1992, after she split with Prince Charles.

British newscaster Selina Scott told the U.K. Sunday Times that Diana was creeped out when Trump sent her massive bouquets of flowers.

"As the roses and orchids piled up at her apartment she became increasingly concerned about what she should do. It had begun to feel as if Trump was stalking her," she told the newspaper. "Trump clearly saw Diana as the ultimate trophy wife."

Diana had apparently asked Scott for advice on how to handle the mogul's flowery attention.

"'Just throw them in the bin,' I advised. Diana laughed."

Scott herself has been the target of Trump's attention, but not in a romantic way. He's threatened her with lawsuits, called her "obnoxious," "not at all very smart," "a loser," and "sleazy."

A spokesman for Trump would only comment that the presidential candidate and Diana had "a great relationship, liked each other a lot, but nothing ever came of it."

If Trump was looking for love, he should have looked at FR...

What? You mean we've deserted our first love, Putin? (sarcasm)

Get a clue. Women tend to like strong effective leaders.

(the Kennedys are still upset about that)

Maybe if Di had dated Trump instead of that Fayed guy, she might still be alive...

[Citizen Zed]

That reminds me of that Elton John song... The Bitch is Back.

[Jane Long]

Jealous much? Sounds like you’ve got a Trump thread jones.

[longtermmemmory]

Why bring out the desperation stories at this point in the PRIMARY. Is this for Jbush or Hclinton or are both working together.

The Clintons have the English tabloid connection.

who owns this paper?

[exist]

That’s it! It’s over for Trump now!

[AFreeBird]

Wow! Donald likes attractive women. Let’s hear it for the heterosexual male.

"Women tend to like strong effective leaders."

They do. I know I do. But personally, I can't stand arrogant narcissistic blowhards.

I've always found Trump to be physically unattractive, as well. Ugh, that mouth.

[Democrat_media]

The media will try to do everything to destroy Trump

[PhiloBedo]

Well, Di might still be alive if only.............

"When you’re a rich Republican, and/or have “insulted” a poor “Christian Conservative lady” like Megyn Kelly, who suddenly decided to take a vacation in August just like everyone else — ho hum — right after a “great” debate “moderation” performance."

Wow, really?

Whether a person like Trump or not, I wouldn't think anyone would mistake Kelly for one of those.

[Wilderness Conservative]

Uhhmm, DUH!

[showme_the_Glory]

I heard someone on FR wanted to hit that too.

[smokingfrog]

[onedoug]

So you joined.

[Sequoyah101]

I think a lot of us may have wanted Diana for a trophy wife.... so what’s the problem? None of us got her and she died. Fini.

I thought her nose was a little crooked. Other than that, meh.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Major hit piece attempt.
