“Security is always going to be the deciding factor in this,” a source close to the Sussexes told The Sun on Sunday.
Harry has repeatedly spoken about wanting police protection for himself and his family while in the UK—protection that was removed after he and Meghan stepped down as working royals.
Legal Battle Over Police Protection
In May, the Duke of Sussex lost a High Court challenge seeking to have his security reinstated. However, he later wrote to Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, who approved a formal review of the decision.
That review will be conducted by the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (Ravec), the same body Harry previously challenged in court. The outcome is expected to be announced “very soon.”
If police protection is granted, sources told The Times that Meghan is likely to attend the one-year countdown event for the Invictus Games and may even bring the couple’s children with her.
