Jimmy Kimmel’s Thursday night monologue featured an unexpected guest when his supposed assistant, “Natalie,” crashed the set and quickly got very clingy with the host.

“This man is my guardian and my protector,” she said.

That was a reference to President Donald Trump’s closest aide, Natalie Harp, who reportedly called him her “Guardian and Protector in this Life” in what The New York Times described as a series of “devotional letters” she wrote to him.

When Kimmel told his “Natalie” to take a seat, she sat on the floor at his feet. When he helped her up, she gushed: “Your hands are so soft and your body’s so strong.”

The fake Natalie appeared to be Kimmel’s real-life wife, Molly McNearney, who is also one of the show’s executive producers and co-head writer. As she was dragged off the set, she called out: “Your wife doesn’t deserve you.”

Trump is rarely seen without Harp in a relationship unusual enough that Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) made national headlines last month just by mentioning her at a rally in a quick one-liner about the president.

“He doesn’t want to do the job. He wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the emir of Qatar,” Ossoff said, triggering weeks of discussion about Trump and his aide.
