Harry's UK Family Visit Blocked by Security Row
11 Jun
Summary
- Prince Harry wants to visit the UK with his children.
- An ongoing legal security dispute is the main obstacle.
- He is scheduled to attend an Invictus Games event in July.
Prince Harry reportedly wishes to bring his wife Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, to the UK this summer. This family visit would mark their first to Britain together in nearly four years, with the children having not seen their royal relatives in person for an extended period.
However, an unresolved legal dispute concerning security arrangements for the family in the UK presents a considerable obstacle. Prince Harry lost a challenge regarding his entitlement to official security following his departure from royal duties in 2020.
Despite this, a December U-turn by the Home Office granted him a full risk assessment. Sources suggest optimism about reinstated armed protection, though a formal decision is pending. Harry is due in the UK in July for a one-year-to-go event for the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham.
While Harry is keen for his children to accompany him, no concrete plans have been finalized, with current focus on the Invictus event. Should Meghan join him, it would be her first official return to Britain since the late Queen's funeral.
