Prince Harry has suffered a new blow after the Duke of Sussex and Meghan Markle issued a furious statement. The director of a conservative think-tank has said he will urge Donald Trump to deport Harry if evidence were to emerge that the royal lied on his US immigration papers.

This week, it was their home life in Montecito, California that got the world talking, with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle both playing an active role in the relief efforts amid the neighbouring Los Angeles wild fires.

Now, Nile Gardiner, director of the Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom and Bernard and Barbara Lomas Fellow at the Heritage Foundation, accused the Sussex couple of making a "huge mockery" out of the Royal Family" with their "hugely inappropriate political rant", despite not being working members of the Firm.
