Donald Trump has been elected as the next President of the United States – and it could be bad news for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, who the politician has previously vowed to boot out of the country.
Donald Trump, 78, has officially been elected as the next President of the United States and it’s speculated that he might uphold one of his threats against Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Trump had previously warned that he would take “appropriate action” against the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, which could potentially result in their expulsion from the US.
If this happens, it’s believed that the couple already has a “back up plan” prepared for such an eventuality. The Republican had earlier commented on excerpts from Prince Harry’s bestselling 2023 memoir Spare, where the Duke of Sussex shares his experiences with psychedelic drugs – a factor that could jeopardize his visa status.
In a notable excerpt, Harry, 40, recalls an encounter with magic mushrooms at a Hollywood party, writing: “I stared at the bin. It stared back. ‘What-staring? ‘ Then it became… a head. I stepped on the pedal and the head opened its mouth. A huge open grin.”
Displaying a level of openness rarely seen among senior members of the royal family, the father-of-two also admitted that while cocaine “didn’t do anything” for him, “Marijuana is different, that actually really did help me.”
Readers were captivated by the unfiltered glimpse into Harry’s life outside his royal duties, but it’s understood that the formerly impeached President Trump was decidedly less than impressed, reports the Mirror.
Royal insider Hugo Vickers dished to The Sun about the possibility of Prince Harry being sent out of the country, citing his past drug use. “I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he suddenly said ‘Right, I’m sending Prince Harry out of this country’. And the reasons that he would use would be the drug issue, because Prince Harry has admitted to taking marijuana, cocaine, magic mushrooms – and may not have filled that in on his visa form.”
Hugo went on to suggest it’s smart to consider all options including a move: “I think it’s very wise to take all the possibilities into account [and look to live elsewhere]. Looking at it from the outside, it makes perfect sense that they should have a backup plan. But Meghan is very US-based and [Harry being kicked out] would be a problem for them.”
Rumors are swirling that the Sussexes might already have their escape route planned, with their recent holiday home acquisition in Portugal, near a spot enjoyed by Harry’s favorite cousin, the youthful Princess Eugenie, 34, and her cheerful hubby Jack Brooksbank, 38. According to reports from the Mail Online, the purchase could pave their way to obtaining a “Golden Visa” – a golden ticket to visa-free travel throughout the European Union’s Schengen area.
Yet another royal commentator, the insightful Richard Fitzwilliams, suggested to the Daily Express that Portugal is not likely to replace California as home sweet home for the Sussexes. He enlightened: “I don’t think that the home in Portugal is intended as a permanent base to replace California.”
“Harry was extremely foolish to discuss his drug taking in Spare both in interviews and in the memoir, available in paperback. However, the Sussexes have kept a relatively low profile during the Election, urging Americans to vote but not being explicit as to whom for.”
He continued: “At one time it was thought that Meghan might enter politics but we have seen no sign of this. It is most unlikely that Trump would risk an embarrassing episode involving the royal family by expelling Harry, if it was discovered that he had not revealed his drug taking on his Visa application.”
During an interview with GB News earlier this year, Trump was quizzed by interviewer Nigel Farage as to whether there would be any “special privileges” for Harry. Trump replied: “No. We’ll have to see if they know something about the drugs, and if he lied they’ll have to take appropriate action.”
Farage then pressed: “Appropriate action? Which might mean…not staying in America?” Considering this, Trump responded: “Oh I don’t know. You’ll have to tell me. You just have to tell me. You would have thought they would have known this a long time ago.”
Back in February during the four-day Conservative Political Action Conference held in Washington DC, former President Trump had some stern words for Prince Harry when speaking to the Daily Express US.
Trump firmly stated: “I wouldn’t protect him. He betrayed the Queen. That’s unforgivable. He would be on his own if it was down to me.”
He further expressed his opinion that the royal family had been excessive in their kindness, adding: “I think they have been too gracious to him after what he has done.”
Controversy over Prince Harry’s stay in the U. S. took a legal turn when the Heritage Foundation filed a lawsuit requesting the disclosure of his visa application records to investigate whether his self-admitted drug use was declared. The conservative think tank argued that this behavior could affect his admissibility under U.S. law.
Despite the buzz, a September ruling by U. S. Judge Carl Nichols kept the Duke’s records out of the public eye, concluding that “the public does not have a strong interest in disclosure of the duke’s immigration records” and acknowledged Harry’s right to privacy regarding his immigration status.
