Andrew, 59, Queen Elizabeth's second son, has stepped back from royal duties after he gave an interview last month over his friendship with the disgraced late U.S. financier Jeffrey Epstein.
"I don't know Prince Andrew but it's a tough story, it's a very tough story," he said. Trump is in London for a NATO summit.
