Prince Harry has received surprising support following questions about a potential return to the United Kingdom from a former Prime Minister.
Liz Truss joined GB News host Dan Wootton in Leigh, Greater Manchester, for her first exclusive interview since leaving Number 10 after a mere 49 days.
Truss, who succeeded Boris Johnson in Downing Street before being ousted after her mini-budget, answered questions from Wootton and GB News viewers.
An audience member asked: “Do you think that Britain would welcome Prince Harry back if he was deported or divorced from Meghan?

Truss replied: “If Prince Harry wants to come back to Britain, I think we should welcome him back.
“I do think we should. I know that’s not popular necessarily with the audience.
“But I do think now he’s not on the list to be paid for the Royal Family.

She added: “I can’t comment on where the influence comes from but certainly some of the recent interviews and books suggest.”
Truss' surprising show of support comes just hours after the Duke of Sussex received a legal boost.
The Department of Homeland Security today announced it refused to release immigration records regarding the father-of-two’s application.

The right-wing Heritage Foundation brought forward the legal challenge regarding the Duke’s visa application.
Nile Gardiner, director at the think tank’s Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom, said in response: "This week The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) refused to confirm or deny whether or not they had records relating to the Duke of Sussex requesting a waiver in order to lawfully enter the country.
"This response to The Heritage Foundation’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request shows an appalling lack of transparency by the Biden Administration.

"To say, as DHS argue, that merely acknowledging whether a waiver exists would violate the Duke of Sussex’s privacy is to say: (1) it is private whether he has a waiver, which he must have if he complied with the law given that he currently resides in the United States; (2) it is private whether the government blatantly ignored the law in Prince Harry’s case; or (3) that there is a privacy interest in perjury.
"This argument makes no sense, but is not surprising coming from the zero transparency Biden Administration.”
