Prince Harry is reported to be reconsidering plans to bring Meghan and their children, Archie and Lilibet, on a UK trip next month, after a security decision. Multiple outlets say Harry was told that no taxpayer-funded police security would be provided for the family during the visit, prompting concerns about their safety. The BBC is cited as reporting that Harry is “distraught” by the outcome, but he is still exploring ways to make the trip work.
The planned visit is described as the family’s first to the UK in about four years and would take place around July, including a trip to see Princess Diana’s grave at Althorp. Reports also connect the travel with the lead-up to the Invictus Games in Birmingham in July 2027, including attendance at launch events and visits to charities Harry supports, such as WellChild and Scotty’s Little Soldiers. Some reports add that Archie and Lilibet would visit Diana’s grave for the first time.
Outlet reporting indicates a final decision is expected in the coming days, with security remaining the main sticking point.
