Prince Harry loses police security lawsuit to UK government

Prince Harry has lost his battle to get his police bodyguards re-instated in a lawsuit in which the royal rift loomed large.

Prince Harry has lost his legal battle against the U.K. government's decision to remove his automatic police protection when visiting the country, as ruled by London's High Court on May 23, 2024. The Duke of Sussex, who stepped back from royal duties in 2020 and moved to the U.S., argued that the decision by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (RAVEC) was unfair and illegal. However, retired High Court judge Sir Peter Lane dismissed Harry's claim, stating that RAVEC's approach was neither irrational nor procedurally unfair. Despite the loss, Prince Harry's legal team indicated plans to appeal the decision, emphasizing the importance of security for him and his family during U.K. visits.
