Royal News: Key Updates on Prince Harry’s Visa and Tribute to Princess Diana
Prince Harry’s US Visa Stays Private
A judge has decided that Prince Harry’s US visa application will remain private. This decision comes despite Harry admitting in his memoir Spare that he used drugs, including cocaine and psychedelic mushrooms. If this could have affected his ability to enter the US in 2020, the question arose. However, the judge ruled that revealing his visa details would not serve the public interest. The judge stated, “Like anyone, Prince Harry has a right to keep his immigration status private.”
Harry Honors His Mother, Princess Diana
In New York, Prince Harry has been attending several essential events related to his charity work. One of these was The Diana Awards, an event recognizing young people making a big difference in the lives of others. Harry paid tribute to his late mother, Princess Diana, by expressing his pride in the work being done by the award recipients, saying, “My mum would be incredibly proud of your activism and compassion. Those values truly reflect how she lived her life.”
No Christmas in the UK for Harry and Meghan
Royal experts believe it’s unlikely that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will spend Christmas in the UK. Harry has voiced concerns about his family’s safety in the UK since he and Meghan stepped back from their royal roles in 2020. A former royal correspondent shared that returning for Christmas would contradict everything Harry has said about security concerns for his family, making it very unlikely.
Former Staff Praise Meghan as a Kind Employer
Despite reports of struggles within the Sussexes’ team, former employees have spoken out to defend Meghan Markle. A former chief of staff shared how meaningful her time working with the Sussexes was, while the couple’s global press secretary recounted Meghan’s kindness, explaining how she reached out to check on her during a difficult time.
Queen Camilla Backs Domestic Abuse Campaign
Queen Camilla has shown personal support for The Independent’s campaign to build a safe home for women escaping domestic abuse. She made a private donation to help the Brick by Brick project, which aims to raise £300,000 for this cause in partnership with Shelter. The queen expressed that this campaign is essential for giving hope to those in desperate situations.
Harry Says ‘No’ to Returning to Royal Life
Prince Harry firmly stated that returning to royal duties is not his future. In a resurfaced interview from 2023, Harry mentioned that even if there were an agreement with his family, outside forces would make it too challenging to resume royal life. He added, “It’s not about stopping us from returning but making it unsustainable.”
Harry Advocates for Listening to Young People
At The Diana Awards in New York, Prince Harry emphasized the importance of listening to young people. He praised the courage of the award recipients, saying their bravery gives him hope for the future. Harry highlighted that today’s youth are key to creating positive change in the world and encouraged everyone to take their advice seriously.
Meghan Markle Could Return to Royal Life, Expert Says
A royal expert has suggested that Meghan Markle could return to the royal family if she’s willing to follow certain protocols. Meghan and Harry returned from their royal roles in 2020 and moved to California. However, a royal author believes that a return might be possible if Meghan is open to adapting to royal life without seeking an apology. This speculation arises as questions about their financial future surface, especially with their Netflix deal ending next year.
Harry Talks Mental Health at a New York Event
Prince Harry continued to raise awareness about mental health at a recent New York event. He suggested that “mental health” should be replaced with “mental fitness.” At the event, set up in memory of Princess Diana, Harry once again honoured young people who were making a difference.
Former Royal Security Head Warned About Mohamed Al-Fayed
A former head of royal security shared that he had warned Queen Elizabeth II about Mohamed Al-Fayed before Princess Diana and her sons went on holiday with the businessman. Concerns about Al-Fayed’s behaviour had surfaced during the 90s, and the former security chief was alarmed when Diana vacationed with him. Al-Fayed has since faced multiple accusations of sexual abuse.
Harry Continues Diana’s Legacy of Clearing Landmines
