The US Conservative Group is calling for the deportation of Prince Harry over past drug use
Prince Harry should be denied a visa and deported from the US, a conservative group is demanding.
When Prince Harry detailed his history with pot and other drugs in his autobiography, he caused heads to roll, particularly in conservative circles on both sides of the Atlantic. The Heritage Foundation – a conservative think tank operating for over 50 years – has called for Prince Harry’s deportation over his admission of past drug use, including weed and cocaine.
The Duke of Sussex, 38, currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife Meghan Markle and son Archie. But Harry is living on a visa and has no plans to apply for permanent US residency or citizenship, although he is eligible. The couple left the royal family and moved to California in January 2020, where they have continued to be a focal point for tabloids and aggressive paparazzi.
A Heritage Foundation representative said the organization is at odds with the US State Department over their refusal to release details of Prince Harry’s visa application, reports The Mercury News.
The power couple is often the target of conservative media, who often side with the royal family rather than Prince Harry. The Heritage Foundation entered the arena by challenging his visa status.
“This application is in the public interest given the possible revocation of Prince Harry’s illicit substance use visa and wider questions about the Prince’s drug use and whether he was properly screened prior to entering the United States,” said Mike Howell, Director of Heritage Oversight Project of the Foundation, told the Daily Mail.
In Prince Harry’s controversial autobiography, Spare, which was published last January, he revealed that he first snorted coke when he was 17, and then on a number of other occasions. He, too, got dressed after his first date with Meghan Markle. “I started doing it for free and then I realized how good it was for me,” Harry said. “I would say it’s one of the fundamental parts of my life that has changed me and helped me deal with the trauma and pain of the past.”
Prince Harry also detailed his adventures with mushrooms, talking to the toilet and having strange visions. The High Times has been following reports of his marijuana use since at least 2017. (Tyler Dooley, Meghan’s nephew and son of Meghan’s half-brother Thomas Markle Jr., entered the cannabis industry back in 2015 and released the Markle Sparkle strain.)
Is Prince Harry’s visa really in jeopardy?
However, by law, Visa records are considered confidential. “Visa records are confidential under Section 222(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA); As such, we cannot discuss the details of individual visa cases,” a US State Department spokesman said.
Legal experts are unsure whether Harry’s past drug use could actually jeopardize his visa status, which allows him to stay in the United States to live and work. “An admission of drug use is usually a disallowance,” former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani told Page Six. “This means that Prince Harry’s visa should be refused or revoked because he admitted to using cocaine, mushrooms and other drugs.”
New Jersey-based attorney James Leonard disagreed with Rahmani, saying Prince Harry’s visa status was not at risk.
“Barring a criminal charge related to drugs or alcohol, or a finding by a judicial authority that Prince Harry is a habitual drug user, which he clearly is not, I see no problem with the disclosures in his memoir regarding recreational drug experimentation,” said Leonard.
