US Court Orders Release of Prince Harry’s Visa Records Following Drug Use Claims

Judge mandates redacted immigration documents to be made public after conservative think tank challenges Duke of Sussex's US entry.

A US court has ruled that Prince Harry's visa application records must be released in redacted form by Tuesday, following a Freedom of Information request by the Heritage Foundation.
The conservative think tank questioned Harry's 2020 US entry, citing admissions of past drug use in his memoir 'Spare,' including cocaine, marijuana, and psychedelic mushrooms.
Judge Carl Nichols, who previously ruled in 2024 that public interest in the disclosure was insufficient, reversed course after the Heritage Foundation sought a revision.
The Department of Homeland Security has agreed to release the documents with redactions to protect sensitive information, as outlined in recent court filings.
Former President Donald Trump commented on the matter, stating he would not pursue deportation but criticized Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, who has been a vocal critic of Trump in the past.
