Prince Harry has expressed concerns about the safety of returning to the UK with his wife, Meghan Markle, following their decision to step back from their royal duties in 2020 and relocate to the US. In a recent ITV documentary, the Duke of Sussex revealed that he believes it is still dangerous for them to visit the UK due to the intense media scrutiny they have faced.

Harry highlighted the impact of relentless press attention on his family, leading him to take legal action against various media outlets. He emphasized the potential risks involved, stating, 'It's still dangerous, and all it takes is one lone actor to act on what they have read.' The Duke expressed genuine concerns about the safety of his family, citing the possibility of harm from individuals influenced by negative media coverage.

Furthermore, Harry emphasized the need for enhanced security measures during their visits to the UK. Following their resignation as senior members of the royal family, the couple was stripped of their security detail, prompting Harry to petition the UK government for additional protection.

Despite his desire to return to the UK to see family, friends, and support charitable causes, Harry's legal team emphasized the importance of ensuring his safety. They highlighted documented threats from extremist groups, underscoring the need for adequate security arrangements.

In a recent ruling by London's High Court, it was determined that Prince Harry and his immediate family would not receive tax-funded police protection during their visits to the UK. The decision has prompted the couple to seek an appeal, as they continue to prioritize their safety and well-being.

As the Duke of Sussex navigates the complexities of balancing his public profile with personal safety concerns, the ongoing debate surrounding security arrangements underscores the challenges faced by high-profile individuals in the public eye.
