Prince Harry has officially lost his appeal to reinstate his publicly funded security detail during visits to the UK. He has been fighting this battle since 2020, when the government withdraw his regular police protection after he stepped back from his royal duties and relocated to the United States. According to Harry, he cannot safely return to his home country without protection. He argues that he has been unfairly singled out in what seems like a personal vendetta from the Royal family, as others in the same position as him have continued to be afforded this protection.
At the time Harry and his wife Meghan Markle chose to step down, Harry claimed “he would step [his] family back from all [he has] ever known to take a step forward into what [he] hope[s] can be a more peaceful life.” Judging from the interview below with the BBC, Harry’s decision has been nothing but peaceful. He is estranged from both his dying father and his only sibling, and instead of making a public plea to restore the bonds he has broken, he is using this as a platform to continue to poke the bear.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have trashed the Royal family at every turn, yet they continue to cash in on their titles, or what is left of them. If I were Harry, I’d focus more on repairing the bonds with his family than whining in every interview about what he is NOT getting. The decision has been made by the courts, a post-mortem conversation does nothing but cause further damage.
