Latest Update: What does Donald Trump’s presidency mean for Prince Harry’s US visa status?….. Continue Reading

There is now a new president of the United States of America

The controversy around Prince Harry’s US visa status has died down since it was ruled that the documents wouldn’t be made public, but could Donald Trump’s second presidency mean the royal’s visa is brought under question once more?

In 2024, it was ruled that Harry’s visa application information would remain top secret as there was no reason for it to be made public. This debate came after the royal spoke about his legal drug taking in his bombshell memoir Spare, which prompted a Washington conservative think tank to question his eligibility to enter the US in 2020.

US judge Carl Nichols has ruled that Harry’s application will remain sealed as “the public does not have a strong interest in disclosure of the Duke’s immigration records

His judgment added: “Like any foreign national, the duke has a legitimate privacy interest in his immigration status.”

Donald Trump has spoken out about Harry’s status to be in the country before, and he’s been quite disapproving. Technically, the US president could use his executive powers to overturn the decision and expose Harry’s legal papers for the world to pore over.

Mr Trump told The Express US firmly: “I wouldn’t protect him. He betrayed the Queen. That’s unforgivable. He would be on his own if it was down to me.”
