"Judge Orders Release of Prince Harry's Visa Application Information in Bitter Court Battle"

A D.C. judge has ordered the Department of Homeland Security to provide details of Prince Harry's visa application to a conservative think tank, the Heritage Foundation, which is seeking to confirm whether Harry disclosed his history with illegal drugs as detailed in his 2023 memoir. The foundation believes that if Harry did not make the legally mandated disclosure, it would expose a double standard weighted towards privileged individuals. The DHS has fought to keep Harry's visa paperwork sealed, citing privacy concerns, but the judge's order requires the DHS to provide a declaration of the documents it is holding in connection with Harry's immigration status for review.

US Think-Tank Challenges Release of Prince Harry's Visa Records in Court

The Heritage Foundation, a US conservative think-tank, is appealing for the release of Prince Harry's visa application form submitted in advance of his relocation to California in January 2020. The think-tank insists the application is of "immense public interest" in light of the Duke's subsequent confessions of past illegal drug use as a teenager and as an adult. The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) previously turned down a request for the form under the Freedom of Information Act, stating that it would need Prince Harry's consent in order to do so.
