Prince Harry is finally able to carve out his own space ever since he moved to the US with his wife Meghan Markle in 2020. The Duke of Sussex appears to be embracing a new chapter in his life, focusing on the matters close to his heart while establishing a comfortable family life in California. However, his newfound independence has not come without challenges, as he currently finds himself entangled in a visa issue once again after Trump’s inauguration as the new US president.
According to royal expert Jennie Bond, Harry is taking a modern approach to his ventures by concentrating on his strengths while leaving the commercial complexities to Meghan. Speaking to The Mirror, Bond explained, “I think Harry is happy to continue his family life in California but, hopefully, spend more of his time on his charity work into which I think he can pour his heart and soul.”
Bond further remarked on the contrasting abilities between the couple, stating, “The commercial world is simply something he’s not used to and, let’s face it, his wife is probably better at it than he.” She added that there is “no shame in that” as Harry is “a very wealthy man already” and can “indeed carry out the kind of ‘universal service’ that he pointedly alluded to as he exited the official working Royal Family.”
These comments come as Harry’s situation faces renewed scrutiny amid lingering questions over his past, including allegations regarding his drug usage and whether he misrepresented information on his visa application. Speculation about his potential deportation has once again gripped the headlines, intensifying the pressure on the former royal to clarify his position.
The controversy has escalated to the point where legal proceedings are now imminent. A federal judge has ordered Harry and the think tank he is associated with to appear in court on February 5th in Washington, DC. Judge Carl J Nichols is set to preside over the session, which is expected to address the mounting concerns regarding his visa status and the broader implications for his life in the United States.
As the Duke of Sussex continues to navigate this complex period, his focus appears to remain on philanthropic endeavors and family values. While his critics question his past and potential future in the US, supporters of Harry look forward to seeing him channel his energies into meaningful charity work. For now, the saga of his visa dispute remains under legal review, and the coming court date promises to shed more light on the matter as Harry strives to solidify his new life away from the confines of traditional royal duties.
