Former President Donald Trump has claimed that Prince Harry has “betrayed the Queen” and he would be “on his own” if he wins a second term this year, as per a report in the Independent. Mr Trump was speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Saturday and added, “I wouldn’t protect him. He betrayed the Queen. That’s unforgivable. He would be on his own if it was down to me.”
Prince Harry’s potential interest in acquiring American citizenship has been a topic of conversation, especially after his appearance on Good Morning America where he mentioned considering the possibility, though it wasn’t a pressing issue for him.
The discussion around Prince Harry’s immigration status has been reignited by claims from a conservative think tank, suggesting that Harry’s admission of past illegal drug use in his memoir ‘Spare’ could impact his legal entry into the U.S. The prince’s candid revelations about his use of substances like cocaine, marijuana, and psychedelic mushrooms have led to scrutiny by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), amid debates on the authenticity of these claims and their potential impact on his immigration status.
The Heritage Foundation has been pressing the DHS for transparency regarding Prince Harry’s immigration documents, arguing that his past drug use should technically prevent him from entering the country under federal law. However, DHS attorneys have defended the privacy of Prince Harry’s records, emphasizing the sensitivity of revealing his immigration status and the potential invasion of privacy.
The situation is further complicated by U.S. immigration policies that would require Prince Harry to renounce any royal titles if he were to apply for citizenship, highlighting the complex interplay between personal decisions, legal implications, and public interest in the affairs of public figures like Prince Harry.
