Prince Harry is reportedly planning to plead with King Charles to help ease Meghan Markle’s concerns about the UK in an effort to stabilize their strained marriage. This insight comes from a report by In Touch Weekly, which claims that Harry is aiming to resolve tensions during his upcoming trip to the UK.
According to the report, “Harry will be seeking an audience with the King” during his visit. While the prince is said to be worried about his father’s health and misses him, his ultimate goal is to regain his royal security detail. The report explains, “Harry’s ultimate goal is to get his security detail back,” which would eliminate one of Meghan’s key objections to returning to the UK with their children, Archie and Lilibet.
The potential for this meeting has surfaced amid growing concerns that Harry feels “trapped” in the U.S., unable to bring his children to the UK without Meghan’s approval. There is speculation that Harry fears he may be unable to move freely between the two countries until his children are adults, BBC reported.
For those unfamiliar with the ongoing issues, a significant point of contention between the Sussexes and the UK revolves around police protection. Prince Harry has previously taken legal action in the British High Court, seeking the right to fund his own police protection when visiting the UK. However, his request has been denied due to his removal from the ‘working royal’ list, a status shared by other royals like Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.
Prince Harry’s efforts to resolve these security concerns may ultimately determine whether he can bring his family back to the UK for future visits, a decision that could have a major impact on his relationship with both Meghan and his royal relatives.
