PRINCE Harry has been told to “get the hell out” by furious Americans after calling the First Amendment “bonkers”.

Furious Americans told the Duke to ‘go back to Britain’
Talking about life in LA, his family and future plans on Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert, Harry said: “I’ve got so much I want to say about the First Amendment as I sort of understand it, but it is bonkers.

“I don’t want to start going down the First Amendment route because that’s a huge subject and one which I don’t understand because I’ve only been here a short time.

“But, you can find a loophole in anything. You can capitalise or exploit what’s not said rather than uphold what is said.”

One outraged American wrote on social media: “If he has a problem with the constitution then he can go back to Britain.”

And another blasted: “Get the hell out of America.”

Texas Congressman Dan Crewnshaw waded into the tirade of criticism Harry received, adding: “Well I just doubled the size of my Independence Day party.”

The First Amendment protects several basic freedoms in the US.

This includes freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, the right to assemble, and the right to petition the government.

Outraged people commented on how he was upsetting American’s and Brits
Prince Harry jetted off to the US with wife Meghan Markle and their son Archie to start a new life last year.

Back on UK turf, Nigel Farage tweeted: “For Prince Harry to condemn the USA’s First Amendment shows he has lost the plot.

“Soon he will not be wanted on either side of the pond.”

The royal spoke about his shock at the amount of attention he received while living in Beverly Hills.

He complained about the media “feeding frenzy”.

In the same podcast chat, Harry blasted dad Charles’s parenting and said he moved to California to “break the cycle” of pain for wife Meghan and their kids.

Elsewhere in the podcast, Harry revealed…

Prince Harry claims his life is like the film The Truman Show and he is targeted with “vile and toxic abuse” by trolls
Harry revealed how he and Meghan Markle first met up in a supermarket – and ‘pretended’ they didn’t know each other to avoid attracting attention
Harry tries to have “compassion” for trolls, but finds it “really hard when you’re on the receiving end”
The Duke said that life had felt “more free” since his move to LA with Meghan
Harry doesn’t believe in the “old way of thinking” where girls just “want to be a princess”

The Duke, 36, claimed his father, 72, “suffered” due to his upbringing by the Queen and Philip, then “treated me the way he was treated”.

Harry hailed mum Diana’s “immense impact” but said he didn’t cope with her death until Meghan suggested therapy.

In a sweary podcast chat, he described royal life as a mixture of The Truman Show film and being in a zoo.

The royal also revealed he wanted to quit royal duty when he was in his twenties, saying: “I didn’t want this job.”

The Duke opened up about his mental health struggles in a brutally frank, and profanity-laden, chat with US podcast host Dax Shepard.

What is the First Amendment?

The First Amendment is one of ten amendments to the Constitution that were adopted on December 15, 1791, as part of the Bill of Rights.

This is a written document protecting civil liberties under US law.

The First Amendment says: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

While the First Amendment protects freedoms of speech, religion, press, assembly and petition, other amendments under the Bill of Rights dealt with the protection of other American values.

These include the Second Amendment right to bear arms and the Sixth Amendment right to a trial by jury.

He also claimed that he was told “you need help” while he was growing up but rejected it, saying: “There is nothing wrong with me.”

Only weeks after telling Oprah Winfrey in a bombshell interview that his dad was “trapped”, Harry again opened up about their father-son relationship.

He said on the Armchair Expert podcast: “I verbalise it, which is, ‘Isn’t life about breaking the cycle’?

“There’s no blame, I don’t think we should be pointing the finger or blaming anybody.

“But certainly when it comes to parenting, if I have experienced some form of pain or suffering because of the pain or suffering perhaps my father or my parents suffered, I’m gonna make sure that I break that cycle so that I don’t pass it on, basically.

“There is a lot of genetic pain and suffering that gets passed on anyway. As parents we should be doing the most that we can to say, ‘You know what, that happened to me, I’m gonna make sure that’s not going to happen to you’.”

Following Harry’s “disgraceful” swipe at Charles’ and Philip’s parenting skills, royal aides reportedly want the Prince and Meghan to give up their titles.
