With the Home Office now appearing to reconsider its stance in Prince Harry’s legal dispute over UK security, fresh speculation has emerged about whether the Duke of Sussex could take on limited royal engagements during future visits to Britain with his children, Archie and Lilibet.
Last year, Harry lost his legal challenge regarding police protection for himself and his family, prompting him to state that it was “impossible” to safely bring Meghan Markle and their children to the UK. However, the situation may now be shifting, as the Home Office has commissioned a full security threat assessment for the Sussex family—the first since 2020. Sources suggest Harry is feeling optimistic that automatic police protection could be restored. A royal commentator has noted that, should this happen, Harry would likely be keen to bring his children to the UK to spend time with their grandparents, King Charles and Queen Camilla, who have seen Archie and Lilibet only on rare occasions.
