CBS News • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Prince Harry is seeking all possible options to bring Meghan and their children to the U.K. during his planned visit next month, amid complications over security arrangements.
- British authorities have rejected Harry's request for taxpayer-funded police protection, leading him to reconsider bringing his family on the trip.
- The Duke of Sussex lost legal battles in 2024 and 2025 to maintain his tax-funded security detail after stepping back from royal duties and relocating to California in 2020.
- Security for Harry and his family is now assessed case-by-case by the U.K. government's Royal and VIP Executive Committee, unlike other senior royals who receive full Metropolitan Police protection.
- Harry's legal team argued that private security cannot adequately protect the family in the U.K. due to restrictions on firearms and access to government security resources.
