Prince Harry has admitted it’s unlikely he’ll ever return to live in the UK with Meghan and their children.
After losing his appeal for taxpayer-funded security, Harry told the BBC:
“I can’t see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the UK at this point.”
He said his “worst fears” about safety have come true, and it’s heartbreaking that his kids may miss out on growing up with ties to his homeland.
The 40-year-old said: “The things that they’re going to miss is, well, everything. I miss the UK, I miss parts of the UK, of course I do.
“I think that it’s really quite sad that I won’t be able to show my children my homeland.”
His main wish is to be able to visit the UK freely, without worrying about the safety of his family.
A source told Hello magazine: “The goal for Prince Harry is simple. He wants to ensure the safety of himself and his family while in the UK so his children can know his home country and so he can help support his patronages and their important work.”
A spokesperson for Prince Harry said that he isn’t asking for special treatment — he just wants a fair process.
Harry also said the public would be “shocked” if they knew what kind of information had been kept hidden during the appeal.
Back in 2020, the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) decided to reduce the level of police protection for both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, after they stepped down from their senior royal duties.
