Prince Harry faces 'embarrassing outcome' as he backs himself in corner
Prince Harry could be in hot water over his US visa application as a royal expert claims there can only be "three possible conclusions" with an "embarrassing outcome".
Piers Morgan discusses Prince Harry's 'fondness for drugs'
Prince Harry has found himself in a "sticky situation" out of which there can only be "three possible conclusions" with an "embarrassing outcome" regarding his US visa application, a royal expert has claimed.
The Duke of Sussex could be in hot water over his US visa application, as American conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation launched legal action in an attempt to have the official documents made public, alleging that Harry either misrepresented his past drug use on his visa application or was favoured by the US government.
Harry has previously admitted to using drugs, including cocaine, in his memoir Spare - published in early 2023 - and three years after he was granted his US residency visa.
Now royal expert Jennie Bond told OK!: "This is a sticky situation for Harry to find himself in. There seem to be only three possible conclusions: he lied in his visa application, he lied in his book, or he has been made a special case by the American authorities. All of these signal an embarrassing outcome for Harry. I suspect a way will be found to preserve his reputation and his visa, but he does seem to have boxed himself into a tight corner. Given the prevalence of drugs, I don't imagine for a moment that Harry's application is unusual, (assuming he denied drugs)."
However, Ms Bond added that she hopes the US authorities "don't succeed in making an example of him just because of who he is" as he has now found "love and happiness" in his new life with Meghan Markle.
Prince Harry's representatives have been approached for comment.

Prince Harry's Netflix project offers Duke chance to 'mend fences' with King Charles
Prince Harry's next Netflix project could help him "mend fences" with King Charles after years of tense relations, a royal author has claimed.
The Duke of Sussex opened up on what he described as a difficult relationship with his father and brother in his memoir Spare.
The pair have spent little time together since Harry's departure from the Royal Family – the last time for a brief 30-minute meeting after Charles was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year.

The incident took place last Thursday and while the official US version of her site, americanorchardriviera.com, remained intact, someone created a UK domain which led to a foodbank website.
While the target of the fundraiser was £1,000, on Sunday afternoon it had received more than 18 times its initial target totalling £18,656 from 1,407 people.

King Charles will never 'call to Montecito' for Prince Harry to come back for royal duties

He told The Mirror."Harry is scheduled to speak at St Paul’s Cathedral in London on May 8 to mark the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. The Games were founded by Harry when he was still a working royal, so pressure isn’t being brought to bear to make him give it up now."

Prince Harry is 'opening up' in new Netflix show in a way he 'typically loathes'
EXCLUSIVE: Prince Harry is working on a new Netflix series and we're going to be seeing a different side to him, says one royal expert.
Kinsey Schofield, host of To Di For Daily, says polo - the subject - is something he’s comfortable talking about which may result in him opening up about other topics.
She told Daily Express US: “Polo is a legitimate interest of Prince Harry’s, so it's a unique way to get him to open up in front of the cameras that he typically loathes.
“Netflix knows that any scenes of Prince Harry with his guard down are of interest to the public and will easily translate into stellar PR for the streaming platform.
“And what's in it for Harry is not just a nice payday but a chance to change public perception of him after years of declining popularity.”
