The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are said to be in "more trouble than they realise", which comes after Prince Harry was recently hit with several explosive allegations with him also accused of lying on his US visa application.

Prince Harry, who moved to the United States in 2020 with his wife Meghan Markle, is currently having his US visa application reviewed by a judge following his admissions about his use of drugs in his memoir, Spare, which hit book shelves in January 2023. And now it has been claimed that the Duke is in "more trouble than he realises".

Think tank group The Heritage Foundation launched a lawsuit against Harry after he admitted taking drugs in his tell-all memoir Spare, as applicants are asked questions about their drug-taking history while filling out the form. Harry famously details taking magic mushrooms and smoking cannabis in his bombshell memoir.

Detailing his experience taking magic mushrooms, Harry wrote in Spare: "I stared at the bin. It stared back. 'What—staring?' Then it became... a head. I stepped on the pedal and the head opened its mouth. A huge open grin."

Harry has also admitted to using other substances such as cocaine and marijuana. In another part of the book, Harry said: "Psychedelics did me some good as well. I'd experimented with them over the years, for fun, but now I'd begun to use them therapeutically, medicinally. They didn't simply allow me to escape reality for a while

And now a royal expert has weighed in, with it revealed that the Duke's past admissions might have got him into more trouble than he had hoped. Speaking on Talk TV, royal correspondent Michael Cole told hosts Kevin O'Sullivan and Alex Phillips: "I think he's in worse trouble than he probably realises."

Reacting to the expert's comments, one person commented on the video clip from Talk TV, which has been published on YouTube: "The US wouldn’t even let Amy Winehouse in the Country to get her Grammy." Another added: "He says he wants to be treated like everyone else but he really doesn't and she certainly doesn't." While a third wrote: "Nigella Lawson wasn't allowed in because of some minor use of drugs when she was young."

This comes as US President Joe Biden's lawyers confirmed they've complied with a court order from the aforementioned think tank in order to move it onto the next step.
