Harry's PR Team works the New York Story hard

0:03 Callaroga Shark Media, Hello and welcome through Palace Intrigue and host of Francis Prince. Harry's PR team was apparently working hard as they fed this story to people before they too ultimately quit because they can't deal with Dutchess difficult, people tells us. Harry kicked off his New York City trip with family on his mind. Before stepping on stage at the twenty twenty four Concordia Annual Summit, Harry facetimed Megan and the kids. Harry even gave them a virtual tour of the events space at the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel. During his first day in New York, Harry highlighted the Diana Award in a panel discussion on mental health. He was joined by doctor tesse Ojo CEO of the Diana Award, along with two award recipients, Kiara Rianti who to Pee Zang and Christina Williams. Zang shared he is so kind hearted. He comforted us after as well.

1:03 Backstage he was actually calling Megan. I thought it was just so sweet and it helped humanize him. Williams also praised Harry, saying, here is someone in a high level role who really cares about young people, cares about our voices and our actions. I am leaving the experience still maintaining that admiration or even more. Harry asked Williams and Zen questions about their work and perspectives on the world. Scared children cannot dream, Prince, Harry Williams told him. At one point, when answering a question about why mental health is so important, Harry praised their work, saying, I applaud you. I know my mum would be incredibly proud of you guys. Your activism, your compassion, those two things are so true to how my mum led her life and what she believed in. People made sure to tell us that Harry and Meghan are known for keeping in close contact with their children during trips. Who can forget that time Megan famously took photos of Harry's adaptive skiing during their visit to Canada to show kids. The panel also addressed the growing mental health crisis among young people and discussed solutions.

2:06 The Diana Award launched its Decade of Youth Wellbeing initiative to lead positive change. Williams said it's about mental health, but also about mental fitness and mental well being. Harry then participated in an event hosted by the Halo Trust where he was introduced by James Cowen, the CEO of Halo Trust. Cowen said, Princess Diana walked across a cleared savee path in a minefield in Huambo, Angola, and galvanized the world's attention. Her advocacy set the stage for the land mine Ban Treaty and the governments and the private sector to end the scourge of landline contamination. The Halo Trust is thrilled that her son, Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, is directly carrying on the legacy and the clarion call for landmine clearance. Speaking directly to Harry, Cowen said, You've been one of our most ardent voices and advocates for mine clearance. Harry spoke, the Halo Trust work in Angola meant a great deal to my mother, carrying on her legacy as a responsibility, but they take incredibly seriously.

3:06 Much has changed in my life and the world since twenty nineteen when I first visited Huambo. In those five years, I've become a father for the second time. And while you don't need children to have a stake in the future of our planet. I do know that my mother would have been horrified that anyone's children or grandchildren would live in a world still infested with minds. Harry rolled a seven with a US judge who has rejected the Heritage Foundation's attempts to force the release of Harry's immigration records, determining that the Duke of Sussex's right to privacy outweighed the public's interest. The conservative think tank filed the request after Prince Harry disclosed past drug use in his memoir Spare. The Heritage Foundation argued that the public had a right to know whether the Department of Homeland Security acted improperly or negligently when admitting Harry into the US DC District.

3:55 Judge Carl J. Nichols, appointed by Donald Trump in twenty nineteen, ruled against the Foundation. In his ruling, Judge Nichols stated, like any foreign national, the Duke has a legitimate privacy interest in his immigration status, and concluded that the public did not have a strong enough interest in the disclosure of Harry's records to justify preaching their privacy. Nichols acknowledged that Harry's previous admissions about drug use somewhat diminished his privacy interests, but still held the information sought wouldn't provide sufficient insight into DHS policies regarding drug use and immigration. The case arose after Harry revealed in Spare that he had used drugs, including cocaine, cannabis, and psychedelic mushrooms. His admissions spurred the Heritage Foundation to file a Freedom of Information Act AIA request to find out if Harry's visa application had disclosed this drug use and whether DHS had waighed any ineligibility rules. In response, DHS refused to confirm or deny whether it had Harry's immigration records, with Judge Nichols agreeing that such a disclosure would reveal private information about the Prince. While US law can prevent foreign nationals with drug use histories from enter during the country, certain types of visas, like the A one diplomatic visa, can allow exceptions. The Heritage Foundation argued that releasing Harry's records could reveal whether DHS had been negligent in it allowing him into the country. However, Judge Nichols concluded that releasing information about a single admission of a foreign national would provide limited insight into the department's overall policies. Neither Prince Harry nor the Heritage Foundation as yet commented on the ruling.

5:27 Royal expert Angela eleven didn't hold back when she criticized Meghan Markel and Prince Harry during her appearance on the Royal Beat. Levin accused the couple of acting like gurus on COVID nineteen vaccines, suggesting they were stepping out of their depth. Megan and Harry know nothing about virology. They know nothing really about COVID nineteen. It is what they picked up and what we pick up. We are not experts. Even the Prime Minister listens to experts about what should happened with the vaccinations, Megan and Harry sort of jump in as if they are gurus. Harry's recent solo appearance at the one eighth five Line Charity Concert in California came with some awkward moments, adding a dose of unintentional drama to the event, with Megan Mirkle pulling out last minute due to illness, Harry attended alone. Things didn't exactly go smoothly for the Duke first musician Richard Marx seemingly didn't recognize the Royal. As Marx walked off stage, he almost passed right by Harry before being redirected. Their brief interaction consisted of Harry complimenting Marx with their casual Hey, well done, but the moment appeared a bit awkward to say the least. Then, to top things off, Marx's wife Daisy Fuentes mistakenly tagged Prince William's Instagram account in a photo featuring Harry. The error was quickly corrected, but not before it added a layer of embarrassment to Harry's already cringe worthy evening palace intrigue. Don't be Right Back. Denmark's Queen Mary has provided an update on the health of her mother in law, Queen Margreta. While attending engagements in Copenhagen, Queen Mary was asked about my greater's condition following her
