You wrote a book and you didn't have your lawyer go through it to protect you and think of the consequences.

You write a book, and now you might not get a visa to stay in the USA. Meanwhile, Megs is in the USA with your kids ...across the pond. And in the future, if you were to split, your book will condemn you as to how stable you are in a custody battle. Wake up wake up wake up.

Yes, I thought that very early on. It’ll be the ghost writer made me do it.

I'll agree with that. Or it will be I was ill suffering PTSD and struggling with depression was in a dark place.

I also think that's how the RF will end up reworking his image if he ever comes back to his Father and Brother.

Did anyone else read about Kelly Rutherford's custody fight? She (or her lawyer) reported her ex husband for arms dealing, visa revoked. After a very bitter court battle, the judge ordered the children move to Monaco and live with their father, on the basis that he couldn't enter the US to see them but she could go to Monaco (cue a load of online comment about sending American children to Monaco as though it's a third world country Grin).

She ended up pretty much bankrupt: if they did divorce, Harry's visa was revoked and an international custody battle ensued, it's not cut and dried, and I would bet money that Harry would be funded by KC.

Surely he has already disclosed his drug use to get his current visa, there have been stories about it at the time anyway so was common knowledge.

HerReputationMadeItDifficultToProceed · 08/01/2023 14:13

I think he will be fine. The rules are frequently bent for VIPs in this area.

Megan1992xx · 08/01/2023 10:57

The problem is that PH believes taking drugs actually helps an individual see the truth.
What kind of parental message is that?
I think he has zero chance of custody until he clarifies his views on drugs.

Meghan is well known to have taken drugs before she met Harry. She gave them out at her first wedding. She doesn't seem to have a problem in the US.

Curledupwithagoodbook · 08/01/2023 13:16

That's a very good point Grin

Keith Richards has dual citizenship/US residency, though.

So? She’s a US citizen. That’s the point. She doesn’t need a visa.

MariaRecetas · 08/01/2023 14:40

Keith Richards apparently has a green card. How does that work?

He’s got dual citizenship. And, as others have said, it’s not the drug use necessarily, it’s the lying about it on official documentation - if that is what has happened of course.

smileladiesplease · 08/01/2023 15:01

I think he will massively live to regret it as Charles did with this dimbleby interview and Diana with panaroma. Never explain never complain was a sensible mantra for a very good reason. I wish them both well but I think if they carry on in this bitterness and hate it will taint them and intimately their children.

JamMakingWannaBe · 08/01/2023 10:09

Aren't the drug rules different for working versus residential visas though?

Yes. The parameters applied to visitor visa employment based visa (there are many including specific ones for the entertainment industry - i.e. singers), green card etc are all different. Prince Harry seems only eligible for a B visa (which allows him a time limited stay) or a spousal based green card. Green Card applications have multiple criteria - drug use is a problem. I've seen speeding fines obtained outside the US cause issues...

Publicly stating you take drugs is incredibly stupid.

PreparationPreparationPrep · 08/01/2023 16:44

Oh dear looks like he is on his way back to the UK with his tail between his legs begging forgiveness ......... I doubt.

Holliegee · 08/01/2023 16:47

Am I alone in thinking this is just the Royal family pulling the strings from behind the scenes.

Just the same way they did with Diana.

Its going to end,sadly, very badly and all because Harry is very much Diana’s son.

Sugarfree23 · 08/01/2023 16:50

@Holliegee how can it be the RF pulling the strings?
Harry opened his mouth and told the ghost writer and even reads the who thing out in the audio version.

Eh? The RF didn’t write the book. What, did they force Harry to make his various revelations?

Please can you explain how you think they are pulling strings - it makes no sense.

Holliegee · 08/01/2023 16:54

@Sugarfree23 Similarly to the way Martin Bashir convinced Diana to speak.

I think the Royal family threw him out to the wolves and now people he believes are supporting him/advising him etc are really twisting the knife.

Holliegee · 08/01/2023 16:56

@MeghanAndTheSeals

I think, the royals have people who are advising Harry and really it is just a plot to get everyone to turn against Harry,much the same as they tried to do with Diana.

ThighMistress · 08/01/2023 17:04

@Holliegee Great twist! So the rf persuaded Harry to marry Meghan, leave the country and write a book trashing the rf?

They must have been playing the longest game ever. Is Meghan in on it? Secretly working for the rf all this time?

I think you are confusing a very sad family situation with a series of 24.

TheRedLip · 08/01/2023 17:08

He is being played and has been from their second date. When they got engaged I had coffee with a friend who is a Director at a well known PR company. She casually and clinically detailed exactly how Harry would be played from now on. She predicted the move to America and subsequent family fall outs. She predicted the Oprah interview and the tell-all autobiography. She also predicted that Meghan would divorce Harry within five years and that it would be made very difficult for Harry to maintain a relationship with his children.

Admittedly my friend does have some insider information because of her contacts, but she has been spot on so far.

Honestly, no it’s not. Harry absolutely should have had someone looking out for his best interests based on the huge amount of personal information in this book. The downsides of what he is revealing may never have occurred to him, but someone should have been making those checks for him.

Based on what’s been reported in the Press over the last few days I am genuinely horrified at Penguin Random House who appear to have taken the view that anything goes as long as they make their money. The book has come out with information that can make him a target for a violent regime, with information that can put his visa status at risk - they even let him put in that he mocked a disabled staff member at his primary school to make his schoolmates laugh for heaven’s sake. He may have wanted to do a tell-all, but who was there to protect his best interests in this process. It’s awful.

The mocking of one of the matrons seems really disgusting to me. She was worthy of mockery because she wasn’t one of the hotter younger ones that made him horny. I can’t believe he put that in there, I mean why??

LeavesOnTrees · 08/01/2023 17:15

I also think he's been played. But he's been an absolute idiot for going so public.

I watched some of their netflix documentary and he has an unhealthy belief that Meghan is his mum part 2.
There's no way Meghan didn't approve or give the go ahead for the book.
I think the divorce will be nasty. He's been lined up as a capable of killing, drug taking and unstable manchild.

Itsnottime · 08/01/2023 17:17

The worry is what will happen to H if there is a divorce. He just won’t be able to cope. Having lost many friends and burned all his boats, what on earth is he going to do? Most of his inheritance will have been spent too I am assuming.

So he has absolutely no autonomy over his decisions. It’s always someone else isn’t it, he’s always someone else’s puppet.

She predicted all this from their 2nd date - Maybe she is a clairvoyant.
