To better understand the delicate situation in which Prince Harry finds himself, we must go back to 2020. At the time, Lady Di’s son, harassed by the stubborn paparazzi of the British tabloids, had decided to go into exile in the USA while renouncing his obligations to the British royal family, with whom he came into conflict. Clearly, the Duke of Sussex wanted to become an ordinary citizen again by settling in California with his American wife, actress Meghan Markle.

But as “highly elected” as he may be, Harry of Sussex has not escaped the very strict rules of the American administration. The same one who asks you in writing, when you go on vacation to the USA, if you do not intend to commit an attack in Uncle Sam’s country.
To settle in California, the Duke of Sussex had to fill out a form as a candidate immigrant. However, to be able to immigrate to the United States, you have to show your credentials on many subjects. And drug use is one of them. And this is precisely where the problem lies: Harry allegedly lied about his drug use. And would have betrayed himself in his autobiography entitled “the Substitute”. He described having used narcotics. “I smoked a joint on the balcony or in the garden […]while Archie and Meghan were asleep.” Later, he wrote: “Cocaine, marijuana, mushrooms,… I tried everything.”
However, in the United States, immigration is very strict regarding a history of drug use. U.S. law generally prohibits the entry or residence of persons who have admitted to drug use.
A few months ago, the former prosecutor Neama Rahmani, had also indicated “that an admission of drug use is normally a reason for inadmissibility”reminding us that members of a royal family cannot be an exception.
No luck: Meghan Markle and Prince Harry had positioned themselves in favor of Joe Biden, without naming him, during the American presidential election in 2020. They had invited Americans to “vote against hate speech and disinformation”. To vote against Trump, therefore, without naming him there too.
But Trump can be particularly resentful. And never forget those who once tried to harm him. So he could really send Prince Harry back to his studies: “He probably thought this couldn’t happen to him because normal rules don’t apply to him, as a royal prince, Trump said a few months ago. But now he’s starting to realize that here in the United States, it doesn’t matter if you’re a prince.”

Will the 47th President of the USA carry out his threats? Although he did not keep a countless number of promises during his first term, we know he is capable of anything. And he could make an example of Prince Harry. Even if this remains improbable.
In such a case, however, Prince Harry will still be able to board this multi-year cruise organized by a travel agency and intended for citizens who want to avoid Donald Trump’s mandate.
