(Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday said he felt badly for the British royal family after King Charles stripped his brother Andrew of his title as prince amid mounting pressure over Andrew's ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

"It's a terrible thing that's happened to the family," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One after he was asked about Charles' action. "That's been a tragic situation and it's too bad. I mean, I feel badly for the family."
