Is Natalie Harp’s proximity to the President a job or an obsession? Her own brother just spilled the tea, and honey, it’s PIPING HOT.
Preston Harp, the estranged sibling of Trump’s executive assistant Natalie Harp, decided to air out the family dirty laundry on CNN’s Erin Burnett OutFront this week, and we are LIVING for the drama. During his Tuesday appearance, Preston didn’t hold back about his 35-year-old sister’s working relationship with the commander-in-chief, saying her proximity to Trump “really blows my mind.” Translation: Girl, what are you doing?
But wait, there’s more! Preston went there with the accusation that Natalie has developed what can only be described as an “unhealthy obsession” with the president. Ouch. Family feuds are messy enough without bringing the leader of the free world into the mix, but apparently the Harp siblings aren’t your typical holiday dinner crew.
According to sources, Natalie has been making headlines recently for her close working relationship with Trump, but Preston’s comments suggest the family is far from thrilled about her status as a White House insider. When your own blood is calling you out on national television, you KNOW things have gotten real. This isn’t some whispered complaint at Thanksgiving—this is a full-blown public callout that’s bound to create some awkward family group texts.
The 35-year-old executive assistant has clearly worked her way into Trump’s inner circle, but Preston’s CNN appearance raises some serious questions about what’s really going on behind closed doors. Is it just a job, or has Natalie become a little too invested in her proximity to power? Preston seems to think the latter, and honestly, when your own brother is going on national news to shade you, the family drama is REAL.
What’s particularly delicious about this whole situation is the timing. Natalie’s been in the headlines recently, and instead of her family rallying around her like a normal family would, Preston decided CNN was the perfect platform to air his concerns. We live for the transparency, but yikes on bikes for Natalie’s inbox.
The internet is absolutely DIVIDED on this one, with some people applauding Preston for speaking truth to power (or rather, truth to his sister), while others think he should have kept the family drama behind closed doors. Either way, this is officially the messiest workplace situation we’ve heard about in AGES.
What do you think? A) Preston is right to call out unhealthy behavior, even on TV B) Some things should stay within the family
