Identified as Judge Robert Jones, the judge made it clear to Harry that his royal title held no sway in the US, emphasizing that he was subject to the same rules and procedures as any other immigrant. Harry, having stepped away from his royal duties to pursue a new life and career in the US, had aspirations of making a positive impact alongside Meghan, with whom he had secured lucrative deals with Netflix and Spotify, and established their foundation, Archewell. Despite their efforts to integrate into American society, Judge Jones's treatment left Harry feeling disrespected and marginalized.
During the hearing, Judge Jones refused to acknowledge Harry's royal title, instead referring to him by his legal name, Henry Charles Albert David Mountbatten-Windsor. He scrutinized Harry's background, motives for moving to the US, and challenged his status as a public figure and humanitarian. Harry, feeling the weight of Judge Jones's skepticism, attempted to defend himself, reminding the judge of his contributions and legacy, as well as his love for the US.
However, Judge Jones remained unmoved, reiterating that Harry must adhere to the same legal requirements as any other immigrant. The hearing was adjourned, with Judge Jones promising to render a decision on Harry's green card application in due course.
The news of Harry's encounter with Judge Jones sparked controversy and backlash, with many condemning Harry's perceived arrogance and entitlement. Questions arose about his true intentions and loyalty, with some accusing him of exploiting the US for personal gain. The incident cast doubt on Harry's aspirations to become a US citizen, with hopes among some that Judge Jones would deny his green card application.
