Donald Trump's glamorous aide Natalie Harp penned a heartfelt six-word confession to the president in one of several bizarre letters she left for him to find in his personal spaces, according to explosive new claims.

The alleged note, revealed in new book Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, reportedly read, "You are all that matters to me." The book claims Harp, 34, has become one of the closest people in Trump's orbit, with the president allegedly relying on her for everything from social media posts to trade figures.

Questions surrounding the nature of their relationship have only intensified after the White House declined to provide further details when asked about reports. Speaking on The Daily Beast Podcast, host Joanna Coles and executive editor Hugh Dougherty discussed Harp's influence inside the White House. It comes after her brother called her relationship with Trump "unhealthy."

One excerpt from the book alleges Trump has called on Harp to overrule Cabinet members whenever he wants trade figures that align with his own thinking. Dougherty said, "So, she is fueling his delusions: she is providing him with endless praise that she prints out off random social media, and then it’s all being put out in public, and she is with him ‘round the clock."

According to the book, Trump's admiration for Harp appears to be mutual. After Harp allegedly wrote the note, President Trump reportedly told others that, unlike his other staffers, she "will never leave me."

The book also claims White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles was caught off guard by the letters, allegedly asking herself, "Where am I?" Harp is also said to be behind many of Trump's Truth Social posts, including messages published late at night and in the early hours of the morning.

Coles mused, "When we’re saying that she’s with him 24/7, are we suggesting that she’s in the White House bedroom with him late at night and in the early hours of the morning Truth Socialing for him?"

Dougherty then replied, "Well, we don’t have any evidence that that is the case, but we also have a mystery that he is with her more than any of the other aides."

He continued, "It’s very clear that there are no witnesses who are in a position to say exactly when their interactions stop. She is absolutely with him later at night than other people. That we know. What then happens? How are they interacting? We are unclear.

"The White House is refusing to give us any details, any comment on this in this situation. They didn’t really elaborate on it to Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, who asked about it."

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who is on maternity leave, slammed the claims. She wrote to The Irish Star, "Natalie Harp is one of the most loyal and hardest working aides on President Trump's team."
