Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in precarious position as key date ‘hanging over’ the Sussexes
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are being put in a precarious position thanks to an upcoming crucial date that is “hanging over” them, GB News’ Digital Royal Editor has claimed.
The Duke of Sussex’s US visa documents are at the centre of a court battle since he admitted to taking illegal drugs in the UK and America in his memoir Spare.
The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, is taking legal action against the Department of Homeland Security in a bid to force officials to release Harry’s visa documents. The organisation wants to see if the royal admitted to using illegal drugs before gaining a US visa.
The representing lawyer argued the duke’s immigration records should not be publicly released because of the “stigma of being mentioned in a law enforcement record”.
However, with the looming US Presidential election, Harry’s visa could be up for scrutiny again.
GB News’ Digital Royal Editor Svar Nanan-Sen and GB News’ Royal Correspondent Cameron discussed the topic for this week’s episode of The Royal Record.
Cameron said: “He has spoken openly about drug taking in the past and a legal issue that’s hanging over him. In the United States, a conservative think tank has taken the US government to court over their decision not to release Prince Harry’s immigration record over his illegal drug use.
“Now, in the US, there is this blanket rule that if you admit to taking illegal substances, you could well be barred from entering the United States.
