HUNTED HARRY HIGHTAILIN­G IT TO CANADA!

U.S. visa scandal has prince ready to run away again

-

ROYAL renegade Prince Harry is having serious second thoughts about staying in the U.S. as his legal and immigratio­n problems heat up, according to insiders who say he’s begging wife Meghan to bolt to Canada.

When the 39-year-old Duke of Sussex and former game show suitcase model Meghan, 42, first quit royal duties in 2020, they spent several weeks hiding out on Vancouver Island, before moving to California, where they now live with their kids, Archie, 4, and Lilibet, 2, in celeb-filled Montecito.

But now the royal rebel’s feeling heat to split from the U.S. and “talks about how much he loves Canada and how peaceful their time there was,” spills an insider.

“So now that he’s feeling like he needs to escape he’s looking at that as the perfect spot to run to.”

As GLOBE reported, ever since the hapless Harry blabbed about his drug use in his s memoir, Spare, bigwigs at the conservati­ve think tank Heritage Foundation have been on a crusade to get hold of his visa applicatio­n to see if he lied on the official form.

Drug abuse is considered a disqualifi­cation to obtain a U.S. visa — and now the judge in the case is reviewing Harry’s documents under seal. The legal scrutiny could get him run out of the country.

Certainly, Republican presidenti­al candidate Donald Trump has jumped on th the bandwagon, vowing if he’s reelected, he won’t keep Harry from getting deported! Trump told a crowd: “I wouldn’t protect him. H He betrayed the queen. Th That’s unforgivab­le. He would be on his own if it was down to me.”

According to the insider, the disgraced duke is ready to pull up stakes now to avoid giving his enemies “the pleasure” of forcing him out.

“Harry accepts that they’ll always need to have a base in California, but he’s starting to really sweat getting dragged into some sort of immigratio­n battle,” dishes the insider.

“From his view, the best way to handle it is to establish residency in another country, with Canada his top choice.

“He’s always felt pulled toward Canada. He and Meghan were made to feel very welcome there when they first left the U.K.

“Plus, it’s part of the British Commonweal­th so the transition would be very simple. He doesn’t want to leave California altogether, he just wants to get a home, either on Vancouver Island or outside of

Toronto. He loves the Muskoka area.

“It’s an insurance policy if things don’t work out in the States. It’s perfect for commuting and it would be great for his brand globally.”

But so far, Meghan’s given a thumbs-down to Harry’s escape plan.

“I hear she’s telling him to stop being such a wuss and stand up to these bullies,” says the insider.
