‘This is serious!’ How Prince Harry landed himself in a US visa row | Palace Confidential

‘This is serious’ How Prince Harry landed himself in a US visa row.

During an episode of Palace Confidential earlier this month, the Daily Mail’s Richard Eden asked whether Prince Harry’s repeated confessions about his drug use could have an impact on his US visa. Now an American thinktank, the Heritage Foundation, has taken that question further, by demanding answers from US lawmakers. This could prove to be a ‘serious’ development, argues Eden in today’s episode of our royal talk show. ‘When you move to a country, like Prince Harry has to the USA, then you bring out a book encouraging drug use, talking about how great it was for you,’ he tells the programme. ‘I think people in America, from what I understand are starting to ask, “do we still want him here? Is he a guest we welcome?” From what I can see, this is serious.’

The Mail on Sunday’s Kate Mansey argues that this wouldn’t be an issue if Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had maintained the same level of protection that the Palace used to provide. 'At the Palace you have these layers of bureaucracy, but also people there to support you to make sure that stuff like this doesn’t happen, kind of protect you,’ she says. ‘But obviously he’s chosen to go outside that organisation… the downside is you don’t have a lot of these checks and balances and all that kind of thing.’
