In Royal Family News, Prince Harry is currently suing the British Government, via the High Court in London, for withholding police protection for both he and his family in spite of the fact that he offered to pay for it out of his own pocket. A legal representative for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and their two children said that the family will be “unable to return” to Britain without the protection of London’s Metropolitan Police.
If the government is not compelled to provide security for the Sussexes, who now reside in Meghan Markle’s home state of California, Prince Harry may elect not to gather with the rest of the Royal family to honor his late grandfather.
Royal Family News: Will the Duke and Duchess Stand on the Buckingham Palace Balcony Once Again?
It’s important to note that the Duke of Sussex didn’t seem to need the security when he returned to the UK to unveil his mother, Princess Diana’s statue at Kensington Palace in London.

I personally am over the Sussex woke attitude and childish behavior. My goodness they are almost 40 years old. Grow up and take responsibility for your actions!
Stay home, you’ve got to have a set of “brass ones” to even think about showing your face in the UK.
Even if you came in June you’ll not be allowed on the balcony anyway. And using your kids as blackmail to get what you want on police protection is so fat beyond despicable its on the moon.
