NEWSHoward Stern Declares He's Had 'Enough With The Queen' Following Constant Media Coverage Around Monarch's Death
Howard Stern has built a media empire off of his controversial opinions — and his comments on Queen Elizabeth II's passing are on par with his reputation.
During the Tuesday, September 12, segment of The Howard Stern Show, the media personality went on a tangent admitting that he is annoyed by the amount of American media attention Her Majesty's death has received.
“It’s weird traditions and everything and I’m like, ‘Jesus, enough with the Queen!'” he told co-host Robin Quivers after mentioning the historical figure. “I mean, it’s America, we don’t have a Queen.”

“I mean, I get it,” he acknowledged of why the queen's passing has been on everyone's mind. “The Queen was a nice lady, I guess. My whole life the Queen has been the same Queen and there’s a tradition there and she did her duty to her country, I get it, I get it, I get it but we gotta get back to [Donald] Trump, where those papers are that they found at Mar-A-Lago.”
Stern was referring to the recent news that the former president was holding onto classified documents at his golf resort. Stern has been critical of the polarizing figure and his fanbase throughout his political career.
OK! previously reported the former president's Florida home was raided by the FBI on August 8 due to suspicions of the politician holding onto classified documents in his Palm Beach residence. The businessman is currently under several state and federal investigations.
As Stern and some of his listeners ponder on the controversy surrounding the reality star, the public continues to grieve the loss of the monarch.
Her majesty died on Thursday, September 8, at Balmoral Castle, and since the news broke, both citizens, world leaders and the royal family have been mourning her loss.
"Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was more than a monarch," the statement on the White House website began. "She defined an era. In a world of constant change, she was a steadying presence and a source of comfort and pride for generations of Britons, including many who have never known their country without her."
