Prince Harry will have no choice but to LEAVE America if visa row drags on… Trump will kick him out, expert says – The Sun

PRINCE Harry will have to leave the US if his row over visas continues – and Trump will deport him, an expert has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex, 40, faced another blow in his two-year visa battle and famed royal author Phil Dampier said Harry was “hanging on a bit by the skin of his teeth” .

A judge ruled last month that the father-of-two’s visa documents would not be made public, although he admitted to taking drugs.

The Duke’s reference to the use of cocaine, marijuana and psychedelic mushrooms in his book Spare prompted a conservative think tank in Washington, DC, to question why he was allowed into the United States in 2020.

But now the Heritage Foundation filed a 13-page motion with the court on Tuesday seeking to reopen the case.

They argue that “iron guardrails” were broken and that some evidence should have been examined in court which was not, meaning that their ability to build a case against the court’s appeal ‘Harry was ‘severely compromised’.

The latest development could see Harry forced to leave the US, if it is revealed he lied on his visa application forms.

With the US elections approaching, there are also fears that Donald Trump could expel the Duke of the United States if he becomes president.

Royal expert Phil Dampier told The Sun: “This has been going on for about two years now.

“The Heritage Foundation, which is a think tank in Washington, has really looked into this. I think they feel that Prince Harry was treated differently from other people who have applied for a visa to stay in the United States. United.

“Basically, I think they’re trying to keep this going because the US election is coming up in a few weeks and of course, if Donald Trump comes back, that could be bad news for Harry and Meghan, because he’s very anti-them .

“I think it’s pretty well documented that they don’t like him, and he doesn’t particularly like them.

“I think that up until now, Harris had the protection of the Biden administration.

“At the moment he’s holding on a bit by the skin of his teeth. It’s the sort of thing that, if things go the other way, it could push him back to the UK.”

Speaking about where the couple could potentially move, the expert suggested Meghan could pose problems.

“I don’t think Meghan, if she had her way, would set foot in this country again,” he said.

“She knows she’s pretty unpopular. I think she’s kind of burned too many bridges.

“What makes it difficult, of course, is the children. That means Archie and Lilibet grow up in America, without seeing, without seeing the king and without seeing their cousins.

“They lost Frogmore Cottage, of course, which was their home in Windsor, and on his fleeting visits of late Harry has stayed in hotels rather than royal residences, so it’s hard to know where he would go.”

Mr Dampier said their latest home in Portugal, near Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank, could be an option.

“That would give them a European base and allow him to come and go to the UK fairly, frequently to take part in his Invictus Games, his functions and all sorts of other things,” he said .

But the royal author also suggested Harry might want to return home.

“I think he has definitely shown in recent weeks and months that he wants to come back to the UK and see some of his old friends build bridges again, and in the long term, perhaps reconcile with his family” , he continued.

“I certainly don’t see that happening for many, many years with his brother, Prince William.

“I don’t think he’ll be welcome there, but maybe with the king it might be sooner rather than later.”

Harry has been applauded for his recent solo adventures, including his participation in the WellChild Awards and his successful trip to Lesotho.

Mr Dampier suggested this could indicate there would be more “separately Meghan things” in the future.

“But to be honest, no one can guess what it means for them to settle anywhere,” he added.

A spokesperson for the Sussexes has been contacted for comment.

Harry’s visa row

By Ethan Singh

IN September, a judge ruled that Harry’s visa documents would NOT be made public despite his admission that he was taking drugs.

Harry’s reference to using cocaine, marijuana and psychedelic mushrooms in his book Spare prompted a conservative think tank in Washington, DC, to question why he was allowed into the United States in 2020.

However, in a big boost for the Duke of Sussex, Judge Carl Nichols said Harry had a “reasonable interest in privacy” in relation to his US immigration documents and these should therefore remain private.

The judge did, however, acknowledge that Harry had revealed “intimate details” of his life in his memoir – which included a description of freezing his private parts.

And Harry’s privacy interests were somewhat diminished by his being a public figure, the judge said.

The ruling comes after Judge Nichols spent five months reviewing Harry’s immigration case in a case brought by the Heritage Foundation.

The organization sued the Department of Homeland Security after it refused a Freedom of Information request to see the immigration records of Harry, now a U.S. resident.

Heritage says Harry may have lied on forms in the section that asks if you have been a drug user.

In his ruling published in court papers today, Judge Nichols said “the public has no real interest in the Duke’s immigration records being released.”

His judgment added: “Like any foreign national, the Duke has a legitimate interest in privacy regarding his immigration status.

“And the Duke’s public statements regarding his travels and drug use have not revealed, and therefore have not eliminated, his interest in keeping private and specific information regarding his immigration status, applications or other documents.”

In court in Washington, D.C., Judge Nichols noted that Harry’s memoir, “Spare,” had sold more than 1.4 million copies on its first day on sale and had become a best-selling New York Times seller.

Judge Nichols said the book “shares intimate details of his life”, including “many instances” where Harry took drugs.

In the judge’s opinion, Harry had a “reasonable interest in privacy in his immigration matters.”

Judge Nichols said Heritage was “in part correct that as a public figure, the Duke’s public statements tend to diminish his privacy interests relative to those of ordinary foreign nationals admitted to the United States.” “.

The opinion states: “But he (Heritage) goes too far in asserting that the right to privacy is so diminished by his public statements that it is de minimis (Latin for very small).”

Judge Nicholas added that the Duke’s public statements about his drug use did not eliminate his interest in keeping private information about his immigration status.

Heritage’s argument that releasing Harry’s documents would shed light on the workings of DHS “fails,” the ruling says.

“For the reasons stated, the public does not have a strong interest in the disclosure of the Duke’s immigration records,” the order states.

The judge said certain documents submitted to him by DHS were “particularly relevant,” but the sentence was followed by a large paragraph that was redacted.

Another large section of “particularly relevant” information was also redacted.

DHS turned over Harry’s immigration documents in April for Judge Nichols to review.

He wanted to see the “special harm” that would result from publishing the information.

Judge Nichols told Homeland Security that its arguments so far, including at a hearing in February, were “insufficiently detailed” for him to rule.
