Prince Harry 'reconsidering bringing family on UK trip' over security concerns
The Duke of Sussex is weighing whether to travel with Meghan and their children after officials refused taxpayer-funded police protection.
- Prince Harry is reconsidering plans to bring his wife Meghan and their two children to the UK next month after the Home Office rejected his request for taxpayer-funded police protection on Friday.
- Harry lost automatic Metropolitan Police protection in 2020 when he stepped back from royal duties, and has since engaged in ongoing legal battles with the Home Office and the Royal and VIP Executive Committee over security requirements.
- Following his team's announcement of the visit, they were informed on Friday that no police protection would be provided, complicating logistics for a trip intended to mark the one-year countdown to the Invictus Games in Birmingham next July.
- A source close to the couple accused the Home Office of 'wilfully creating conditions that are making it nearly impossible' for the family to travel safely, raising the likelihood that Meghan and their children will not accompany the Duke.
- Buckingham Palace has disclosed King Charles III's significant private fortune, shifting focus to whether he should privately fund protection for his son and grandchildren—a question now central to the family's potential reconciliation.
