Prince Harry Battles UK Government in Court for Right to Fund Own Police Protection
- Prince Harry's offer to pay for his own police protection in the UK has been denied by authorities.
- Harry argues he feels unsafe visiting the UK with his family without police protection but cannot access it without government approval of his funding offer.
- The British government stopped providing Harry security after he and Meghan Markle stepped down as senior royals and moved to the US.
- Harry has filed multiple lawsuits challenging the decisions denying him police protection and claims tabloids unlawfully obtained private information about him.
- The government argues allowing Harry to pay for police protection could set a precedent for wealthy individuals "buying" security services meant for official government use.
