Prince Harry will travel to London next week without Meghan Markle and their children, Archie and Lilibet, multiple outlets report. ABC News says Harry visits the capital solo after deciding not to bring his family. BBC and Sky News also report that Meghan and the children will not accompany him for the London portion of the trip, though they may join him for other events elsewhere in the UK.
Several reports link the decision to an ongoing disagreement over security arrangements. CNN and the Egypt Independent, citing unnamed sources, describe a dispute relating to police protection for Harry’s family, with the family not joining him in London because security was not in place. The Times of India adds that a request for official police protection was reportedly denied, contributing to the change in plans.
Separately, Metro reports that Harry had initially been offered accommodation at Buckingham Palace but that the arrangement was later withdrawn, with his spokesman pointing to legal developments cited in relation to Associated Newspapers Limited. Despite the accommodation confusion, the shared reporting across outlets centers on Harry being in London alone and the possibility that the Sussexes could reunite with him outside the capital for other engagements.
