Prince Harry Urged to Apologize for Cocaine Use During Colombia Trip

A friend of Prince William’s says Harry should say sorry, Andrew eyes trip to Balmoral, William raises millions for air ambulances, and King Charles appeals for unity after riots.

It’s time for the prince to say sorry.

A friend of Prince William’s thinks Prince Harry needs to apologize for his past cocaine use in his youth during his and wife Meghan Markle’s upcoming trip to Colombia, where drug-related crime is ensuing across the country.

“Harry admitted to doing coke in his book,” the unnamed friend told The Daily Beast on Sunday.

“His trip to Colombia should include an admission that the country has been destroyed by narco-terrorists servicing wealthy drug users in the west, and he should stand up and apologize for his own participation in that disgusting trade,” they continued. “That would be a helpful intervention.”

In his 2023 memoir “Spare,” Harry, 39, revealed that he tried cocaine when he was 17 years old “to feel different.”

“Of course I had been taking cocaine at that time,” he wrote in the book. “At someone’s house, during a hunting weekend, I was offered a line, and since then I had consumed some more.”

“It wasn’t very fun, and it didn’t make me feel especially happy as seemed to happen to others, but it did make me feel different, and that was my main objective. To feel. To be different,” he said.

In his interview with Anderson Cooper on “60 Minutes” last year, Harry said he relied on alcohol and drugs — such as cocaine, pot and psychedelics — in response to his mother Princess Diana’s tragic death.

Harry and Meghan, 43, are set to kick off their next international trip to Colombia on Thursday.

Vice President of Colombia Francia Márquez announced the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s upcoming visit in a statement earlier this month.

“In these vibrant locations, they will have the exceptional opportunity to engage with leaders, youth, and women who embody the aspirations and voices of Colombians committed to progress,” Márquez, 42, said about the couple. “In addition to these meaningful interactions, the Duke and Duchess will experience the rich heritage of Colombia.”

Harry and Meghan are going to Colombia timed to the first World Ministerial Conference on the Elimination of Violence Against Children, which will take place in November.

The Sussexes recently started a new initiative, The Parents Network, aimed at helping parents whose children have been affected by bullying on social media.

In response to the reason for Harry and Meghan’s visit to Colombia, William’s friend told The Daily Beast, “I can’t imagine online trolling is the biggest risk to children being exploited, enslaved and murdered by drugs gangs.”

The Post has reached out to Harry’s reps for comment.

Harry’s past drug use has caused major controversy, to the point where he’s facing possible deportation.

He allegedly didn’t mention his history with drugs on his application forms filed before he relocated to the United States in 2020. The government warns immigrants that making misleading or false claims on government paperwork is grounds for deportation.

The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, sued the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for Harry’s documents, saying they are in the public interest.

However, lawyers for the DHS have previously declared that releasing the paperwork would be “an unwarranted invasion of Prince Harry’s privacy.”

Former president Donald Trump said in March he would consider deporting Harry if he’s reelected and it’s discovered that the former working royal lied on his application for a US visa.

“We’ll have to see if they know something about the drugs, and if he lied, they’ll have to take appropriate action,” Trump said in an interview with GB News presenter Nigel Farage.
