Could Prince Harry be deported because of his partying past?
In January, Prince Harry published his first memoirand the media delighted in broadcasting all the bombshell revelations contained within its pages.
The excerpts that caught the most attention had to do with the tense relationship between the Duke of Sussex and his disapproving family.
(Although the part about Harry’s Frozen Todger made some headlines too.)
But there are some passages that are almost always forgotten and could soon get the prince in trouble with the law.
Prince Harry: Could he be deported due to past drug use?
As we reported yesterday, legal experts have raised concerns that Harry’s admission to drug use could threaten your legal right to remain in the United States.
The Duke of Sussex is not a U.S. citizen and visitor visas may be revoked at any time if authorities become aware of criminal behavior on the part of the recipient.
The 39-year-old California resident says his partying days are behind him, but some lawyers have argued that the US government still has the right to beat him up, as Harry’s book describes several incidents in which his drug use occurred on American soil.
British tabloid vultures love to blame Meghan Markle for anything remotely negative in Harry’s life, so it should come as no surprise that the poor are now criticizing the Duchess for not stopping her husband from speaking openly about his substance abuse past.
Meghan Markle is to blame for Harry’s legal problems
“I don’t understand why his wife didn’t warn him,” royal biographer Angela Levin told journalist Dan Wootton during a recent interview with GB News.
“He talked to her about everything he was going to say. She’s in charge, as we both know.
“She didn’t say ‘be careful, because if you talk too much about drugs, you might get in trouble,'” Levin said, adding that she is “concerned” about “why she left him alone in this.”
“The mental health guru who was talking to him should have said beforehand, ‘Don’t talk about the drugs,’” the royal expert continued.
“He made your life extremely difficult.”
Concerns about Harry’s possible deportation initially stemmed from comments made this week by former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani, who told Page Six that Harry should be worried about being kicked out of SoCal.
“Admitting drug use is generally grounds for inadmissibility,” Rahmani said.
“This means that Prince Harry’s visa should have been denied or revoked because he admitted to using cocaine, mushrooms and other drugs.”
Rahmani adds that “there is no exception for royalties or recreational use.”
Conservative Think Tank Files Lawsuit to Release Harry’s Records
The situation became even more serious after that, when the conservative think tank Heritage Foundation has now filed a lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security alleging that Harry’s past drug use should have made him ineligible for a US visa.
According to court documents, the organization seeks to “compel the production of information” related to the DHS decision to admit Harry to the United States “and allow him to remain to date.”
This action was filed in March 2023 and, a year later, the Heritage Foundation confirmed that the fight to open Harry’s visa application is still ongoing.
Donald Trump has his eyes on Prince Harry
The controversy kept alive by the Heritage Foundation has now attracted the attention of former US President and current Republican Party candidate for the White House, Donald Trump.
Trump has hinted that he will have Harry deported if he is re-elected, but Trump is also known for saying whatever comes into his head and never following through, so we doubt the Sussexes are terribly worried.
Still, a very powerful politician who could soon reclaim the White House has his eye on Harry, which has to be a little scary.
“I wouldn’t protect him. He betrayed the queen. This is unforgivable. He would be alone if he depended on me,” Trump said when asked about Harry’s immigration status by Express.
We think it’s safe to assume how Harry and Meghan will vote in November.
Amid news that both King Charles and Kate Middleton is fighting cancer Harry’s legal troubles come at a time of ultimate crisis for his family.
To be clear, though, Harry will almost certainly no be deported because He once ate mushrooms during a party at Courteney Cox’s house.
But if he he does is sent back to the UK, you can be sure that a bunch of weird bigots will be happy to blame it on your wife.
