Meghan and Harry’s unofficial biographer Omid Scobie wrote for Yahoo! News about Prince Harry’s security needs and his lawsuit against the Home Office.
Mr Scobie went on to claim in the article, “Despite what you may have read in certain newspapers, he has never actually asked the public or the government to cover security costs.”
He added that “it seems extremely cruel to allow 24-hour police protection for Prince Andrew, but not the son of the future king.
“It comes across as if the establishment is punishing Harry again for breaking away from the Firm and sharing his experiences publicly.” He concluded that the only acceptable solution to this battle is to “restore Harry’s access to security at his own expense – before it’s too late”.
Harry’s lawyers claim he was forced to limit visits to the UK because his US security team does not have “adequate jurisdiction” here.
The Home Office decided in February 2022 that Harry would no longer receive personal security from the police, even if he paid the costs himself.
