Prince Harry faces battle over US visa after admitting taking cocaine, marijuana & psychedelic mushrooms in memoir Spare
PRINCE Harry will fight for his visa application tonight after admitting he took coke, weed and magic mushrooms.
Lawyers from conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation are taking on the Department for Homeland Security.
They say the 39-year-old’s past drug use should have disqualified him from entering the US under federal law and that his visa application should be made public.
A court filing also accuses the dad-of-two of “bragging” about his past drug taking.
It comes after Harry wrote in bombshell memoir Spare that cocaine “didn’t do anything for me”.
But he added: “Marijuana is different, that actually really did help me.”
The DHS argued in a court filing: “[The case] comes about in the main because HRH [His Royal Highness] voluntarily – and for immense profit – admitted in writing to the elements of any number of controlled substance violations.
“Indeed, some say HRH has approached the point of bragging and encouraging illegal drug use.
“The Duke of Sussex did so despite the fact that it is widely known that such admissions can have adverse immigration consequences for non-citizens and despite employing preeminent legal advisers on both sides of the Atlantic.”
