Overview

  • President Donald Trump ruled out deporting Prince Harry, citing the Duke's personal issues with his wife, Meghan Markle, whom he labeled as 'terrible.'
  • Prince Harry's U.S. immigration status has been under legal scrutiny, with the Heritage Foundation alleging he may have concealed past drug use on his visa application.
  • Trump's decision marks a reversal from his earlier stance, where he suggested he would not protect Harry if reelected, accusing him of betraying the Queen.
  • The president praised Harry's brother, Prince William, calling him a 'great young man' following their private meeting in Paris in December 2024.
  • The Sussexes' strained relationship with Trump stems from Meghan's past criticisms and their perceived support for Joe Biden during the 2020 election.
