Prince Harry has faced a fresh blow as his US immigration papers have been ordered to be handed over to a judge so he can decide whether to make them public.
The development came after a hearing at the court in Washington DC last month, in which Judge Nichols heard from DHS and the Heritage Foundation, which is seeking to release the material. The Foundation is seeking the release of the documents as part of a Freedom of Information request it filed last year.The Think Tank wants to know if the royal, who lives in California, admitted to using illegal drugs before he was granted entry to live in the US.
In his controversial memoir, Harry spoke about his past cocaine use and admitted it "didn't do anything for me". He added: "Marijuana is different, that actually really did help me." In January last year and during his Spare book tour, Harry often spoke about his drug use, revealing he first took cocaine at 17 while on a shooting weekend. He also admitted to hallucinating during a celebrity-filled event in California and smoking cannabis after his first date with Meghan.
