Richard Griffin, who was in charge of protecting Prince Philip and the Queen for 14 years, told Sky News that Prince Harry’s absence at the occasion was a “huge disappointment for everybody.”
Commenting on the topic of discussion among the 1,800 guests, Griffin said, “Certainly around where I was, they thought he (Harry) should have been here.”
He added: “All this nonsense about he couldn’t get protection, as far as I’m concerned that was a pathetic excuse, he should have been here to honour his grandfather. At the end of the day, if he was that worried about security he could have stuck with his brother and father who have got wonderful security. He would have been more than safe.”
