A ROYAL expert has warned Harry and Meghan to keep quiet on their "worrying" visa row after President Trump ruled out deporting the couple.
The US president yesterday said he had no intention of chucking Prince Harry out of the US as he claimed the royal has "enough problems" with "terrible" Meghan.
The Duke of Sussex has been embroiled in a legal battle to obtain a US visa after he revealed in his biography Spare that he had consumed cocaine, cannabis, and psychedelic mushrooms.
Broadcaster and royal biographer Hugo Vickers told The Sun how he believes Trump's decision to not deport the prince as a relief for Harry and Meghan but that they need to keep a low profile.
He said: "President Trump is clearly not a Harry and Meghan fan and what he actually said was, 'she's terrible'.
"I'm sure that behind the scenes they [Harry and Meghan] will have lots to say, but they'd be very wise not to say anything in public, and I don't suppose for one minute they will.
"There's nothing to be gained by that - in a way, they're very lucky that this matter has been set to rest because it did look a little bit worrying."
Asked whether he would deport Prince Harry, President Trump had told : "I don’t want to do that.
"I’ll leave him alone. He’s got enough problems with his wife. She’s terrible."
Meghan has not hid her aversion for Trump in the past, having dubbed him "divisive" and "misogynistic".
The president also called Harry "whipped," and believes the prince is "being led around by the nose".
Harry's legal battle with his visa erupted after conservative think-tank The Heritage Foundation questioned why the duke was allowed into the US in 2020 following his reference to consumption of cocaine, marijuana, and psychedelic mushrooms in his book Spare.
The judge in his case, Carl Nichols, said he wishes to reveal the "maximum amount possible" to determine how the duke obtained legal entry into the US.
Nichols had previously ruled in September last year that the public did not have strong interest in the sharing of the prince's immigration records.
But this week was the first time the case had been in US courts since President Trump returned to office last month.
Hugo added: "I always thought that President Trump had more important things to think about than what he did with Prince Harry, but knowing to some extent the nature of the beast I had a feeling there was always the possibility that he would get a bit of cheap publicity out of pushing him out, which would have been in some extent a sort of a cheap shot.
"On the other hand, of course, if Prince Harry filled in his form and said that he had nothing to do with drugs, when, in fact, in his book he tells us that he did have things to do with drugs then I suppose I can see that he must be treated like everybody else.
"I think the one person, probably, who will be very pleased about this will be Lord Mandelson, the incoming British Ambassador to the United States, because he won't have to deal with this thorny problem, so at least that one is set to rest for the time being."
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were most recently spotted as they gave speeches at the opening ceremony of the Invictus Games in Vancouver, Canada, last night.

But royal expert Hugo Vickers cast doubt over the former Suits actress' sincerity.
"It was very much like a sort of Oscar ceremony, wasn't it?," He told The Sun.
"Meghan suddenly leaps onto the stage and says she wasn't intending to say anything, but she was so excited to be back in Canada that she decided to do so.
"I gather that her speech was very similar to the one she gave the last time."
He added: "She was actually owning it wasn't she. She was owning the games at that point, and she was telling us that this figure was about to appear on the stage.
"We all knew it was going to be Prince Harry, and then to give him a kiss and things.
"Yes, it showed in a united front. But you must remember she's an actress, so I don't know how seriously one can take that."
