Prince Harry has started a new war with the royal family after threatening to take the government to court over his protection.
The Duke of Sussex claimed he is effectively in exile because it is “unsafe” for his family to return to the UK.
He claims his private security arrangements are not enough to ensure his family’s safety and privacy here.
Harry, 37, wants pay for specialist police protection, but the Home Office has ruled this out – and he has applied for a judicial review against the decision.
He and wife Meghan, 40, lost their taxpayer-funded police protection after quitting their royal roles in 2020. The couple, who live in California with their children Archie, two, and seven-month-old Lilibet, fund their own security there.
