Prince Harry, King Charles’ second son, has once again faced a legal setback after losing his appeal against the British government’s choice to revoke his UK security privileges. This loss of security, originally a perk of his senior royal role backed by state funds, was stripped when Harry resigned from royal duties in March 2020 and relocated to California with Meghan Markle, his spouse.
After losing his security detail, Prince Harry sought a legal review, claiming the decision’s illegality, unfairness, and bias. The court has now denied his team’s challenge, sustaining the government’s stance.

In response to the court’s decision, a government official expressed contentment and reaffirmed that the security system is organized and thorough. This marks Prince Harry’s second defeat in seeking security arrangements; his previous request to cover the police protection costs himself was also declined by the High Court.
Separately, there’s news of Meghan Markle reaching out to Kate Middleton, Prince William’s wife, after a long period of distant relations. It’s reported that Meghan and Kate are quietly working towards mending their relationship after Prince Harry visited King Charles, who has been diagnosed with cancer. Prior to this diagnosis, King Charles underwent prostate surgery, which Meghan also reportedly acknowledged.
Coulisse is questioning whether Prince Harry ought to have the right to UK security on his conditions, or if the government’s strict adherence to policy, regardless of royal status, is justified.
