Prince Harry Pleads to Home Secretary Over UK Security Before Family's August Return

Summary
A private appeal to Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood came after Prince Harry learned a Ravec risk assessment was carried out in late July but not shared with him ahead of his family's return by the end of August.
Harry has been without automatic police protection since stepping back as a working royal, and the report said the lack of response left the father of two feeling "numbed" about keeping his family safe.
A 2025 Court of Appeal challenge also failed after Harry's lawyers argued he was singled out for inferior treatment, while the Home Office said Ravec's approach reflected his unique circumstances.
The dispute now hangs over the Sussex family's planned move back to the UK, where their children are expected to enroll in British schools.
