Calls for Prince Harry's America visa application to be made public after his drug use claims

There are warnings that Prince Harry's US visa could be at risk after he revealed his past drugs use in his memoir and in interviews to promote it. Conservative activists in the US are reportedly pushing for Harry's visa application to be made public as the future of his visa status looks uncertain.

In his memoir Spare, Harry detailed his past use of cocaine, magic mushrooms, and marijuana and he has since been warned that his admission could see him thrown out of the United States. Royal biographer Angela Levin says Meghan should have done more to prevent her husband from speaking out on the matter.

Under the country's immigration laws people who have admitted to drug offences are not eligible for a visa. In Spare, and in interviews promoting the book, Harry admitted to using cocaine as a teenager. He described trying the drug at a hunting weekend party in order to feel something different and also admitted to ITV’s Tom Brady that it was “important to acknowledge” his use of the Class A drug.
