Welcome to the weakened edition of From the Newsroom, 3 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: which is all about the Royals. We're doing so behind 4 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 1: Tylas Walls to cover the big news of the week, 5 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,640 Speaker 1: including Prince Harry's un visa drama heading back to court, 6 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 1: William's powerful speech in Cape's big last minute decision, and 7 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,080 Speaker 1: the line of succession getting an upgrade with the birth 8 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: of a new baby Royal could first up a development 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: in the legal round over Harry's US visa. Prince Harry's 10 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: immigration records are set to once again go under the 11 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,199 Speaker 1: microscope in the US conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation 12 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: first launched this legal action in twenty twenty three, suing 13 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: the Department of Homeland Security to get Harry's visa application 14 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: made public in order to see if he disclosed his 15 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: past drug use, which he'd written about in his twenty 16 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: twenty three memoir FYI. He revealed that he'd experimented with cocaine, marijuana, 17 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: and psychedelic mushrooms, and on US visa applications, drug use 18 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: usually needs to be disclosed, so the conservative group is 19 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: arguing that he may be the light about it or 20 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: received preferential treatment. Worth noting too that we don't know 21 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: what kind of visa Harry's actually on anyway. So back 22 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: in September, a judge ruled that his US visa would 23 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: stay private, but a federal judge has now ordered that 24 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,839 Speaker 1: Harry and Heritage appear in court in Washington, DC early 25 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: next month for a legal challenge. This will mark the 26 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: first time it's been in court since Donald Trump took office. 27 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: And here he is before he won the election, being 28 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: asked about the case by UK politician Nigel Farage early 29 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: last yem. 30 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: But don't the American people deserve to know the truth 31 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 2: about what went on that visa form? 32 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 3: Well, I guess so. I mean, I haven't spoken about 33 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 3: him in a long time. I think there was great 34 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 3: disrespect done to a person that I got to know 35 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 3: very well, and like the Queen, she was unbelievable, you know, 36 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 3: I got to know it very well. Remember I was 37 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 3: supposed to be with her for ten to fifteen minutes, 38 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 3: so we ended up being like for two hours, and 39 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 3: then we had dinner of the night and I thought 40 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 3: she was treated very disrespect actually right them, you know, 41 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 3: I would say, although she wouldn't show it because she 42 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 3: was strong and smart. But I would imagine they broke 43 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 3: her heart. The things that they were saying were so 44 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 3: bad and so horrible. I think they broke her heart up. 45 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 3: I think they really hurt her very But. 46 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: If he's lied on his visa for. 47 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 2: Doesn't the truth need to come up? 48 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 3: Well? Should he get special privileges that nobody else don't know? 49 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 3: And we'll have to see if they know something about 50 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 3: the drugs And if he lied, you'll have to take 51 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 3: appropriate action, which might meant, oh, I don't know, You'll 52 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 3: have to tell me. You just have to tell me. 53 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 3: You would have thought they would have known this a 54 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 3: long time ago. 55 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: That case will being caught on February five, so will 56 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: no doubt have an update on the situation after that. 57 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: Moving on, and it's been quite a big and emotional 58 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: week for the senior royals.
