A new tell-all book about President Donald Trump claims he told staffers that his personal assistant, Natalie Harp, is the only person who loves him as much as his wife, Melania. According to the book, Harp has become Trump's most trusted confidante as his inner circle shrinks, accompanying him throughout the day and catering to his every request.
Natalie Harp's Role and Nickname
The 34-year-old former conservative news anchor now dedicates her time to collecting merchandise, conducting Google searches, printing articles from conservative outlets, and recommending Truth Social posts. According to the Daily Beast, Harp has acquired the nickname "the human printer."
New York Times White House correspondents Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan report that Harp was among the rare individuals who endorsed Trump's decision to redecorate the Oval Office with his distinctive golden aesthetic. "As the year progressed, he kept jamming more gold pieces onto the mantel," they wrote. "When Trump asked White House residence staff what they thought of the glittering display, most responses were muted, but his devout aide Natalie Harp would gush with delight."
Loyalty During Scandal and Seclusion
The book chronicles how Harp remained loyal to Trump throughout his scandal-plagued history. While Trump was secluded at his Mar-a-Lago resort, Harp was a regular presence on the golf course alongside him. It was also claimed that she would leave him numerous letters, including one that read, "You are all that matters to me."
According to Michael Wolff, the letters disturbed various individuals around Trump to such an extent that the Secret Service regarded Harp as a "potential danger to herself as well as the president." The circumstances were so unusual that Susie Wiles, Trump's chief of staff, once allegedly questioned, "Where am I?"
Trump's Comments About Harp
Trump started informing staff members during the early months of his second term that "Nah-ta-lee," using the French pronunciation, "was the only one who loved him as much as his wife and his kids." "All of you will go off and make money," he would tell other staffers. "She'll never leave me."
Several months later, Harp fulfilled his predictions and assisted the president in managing the explosive aftermath of his public falling-out with billionaire and X CEO Elon Musk. According to the book, Regime Change, Trump appeared pensive when he saw Musk's post about the Big Beautiful Bill. "They always leave me," the president reportedly said after several beats. "They always do this. This is why I can't have friends." Then, using the French pronunciation, he called, "Natalie, get me my phone." Trump subsequently attempted to ring Musk several times, with each call going to voicemail. "He never doesn't take my calls," Trump said, looking distraught.
Harp's Influence on Trump's Posts
While reports emerged earlier this month suggesting the president was frustrated with those in his inner circle, Harp was the only individual who appeared to escape Trump's fury. According to The Daily Beast, she was a driving force behind some of Trump's most flagrant posts, including the one depicting Michelle and former President Barack Obama as apes.
