• The Duke and Duchess of Sussex may face danger if they are not given police protection.
• Richard Aitch, the royal security specialist, raises concern about the couple’s safety.
• Harry has filed a second lawsuit at the High Court against UK Home Office and Met Police.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may face danger if they are not given police protection during their planned visit to the United Kingdom, warned by the royal security specialist. Harry, Duke of Sussex, lost his taxpayer-funded protection in 2020 after stepping down as a working royal and moving to the United States.

With the pair planning to visit the UK next month, royal security specialist Richard Aitch has raised concern about what may happen if they are not properly protected by police. The UK Government has previously denied Prince, 37, the right to pay for specialist Scotland Yard officers out of his own money, as previously reported by the Daily Express, and the duke is currently filing a second lawsuit at the High Court, with the UK Home Office and the Metropolitan Police listed as defendants.

Speaking with sources, Aitch stated, “I would like to think that Harry does actually receive police protection. It’s a cost to him but nevertheless, some form, some element of that police oversight. No one seems to actually consider the repercussions.”

“What if police protection is not afforded and Harry or Meghan are actually attacked?”

Harry has already indicated that returning to the UK without police protection would be dangerous for him, Meghan, and their two small children, Archie and Lilibet.

Harry’s legal team has maintained that his US entourage has sufficient authority in the UK to provide appropriate security and that employing police officers would incur no extra costs for British taxpayers.

However, the Royal Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) concluded in June that Prince is no longer entitled to the “same degree” of protection since he is no longer a functioning member of the royal family.

“At the moment there are no hearings scheduled but the court has received an application,” a Judicial Office spokeswoman previously told in the report.
