Prince Harry, 40, has been fighting to overturn a decision that saw his security downgraded after he quit as a working Royal and moved to the US with Meghan Markle
Prince Harry has been striving to overturn a decision that downgraded his security after he stepped back from Royal duties and famously relocated to California with wife Meghan.
The 40 year old has frequently voiced his worries about safety, which have prevented him from bringing his wife and two children, Archie and Lilibet, to the UK.
However, it was disclosed earlier this week that he had lost his latest bid to reverse the decision.
While royals such as King Charles, Queen Camilla, and Kate and William, the Prince and Princess of Wales, are afforded full-time police protection,.
However, other family members do not enjoy this privilege – a situation Harry believes should apply to him during UK visits.
However, other Royal Family members don’t have 24/7 protection in the UK.
Prince Andrew gave up his state-funded security when he stepped back from Royal duties in 2019, according to the Express.

Likewise, Princess Beatrice, 36, and Princess Eugenie, 35, do not receive security as they are not working royals.
The sisters once had police protection costing £500,000 annually, but this was withdrawn by the late Queen Elizabeth II in 2011 amid a row over expenses.
In 2010, the now-King Charles reportedly expressed concerns about Eugenie’s hefty security costs while she was travelling during her gap year, reports the Mirror.
Another of the King’s nieces, Zara Tindall, also goes without police protection as she, akin to Eugenie and Beatrice, is not a working Royal.
Princess Anne, Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh are among the royals who do not have 24/7 security.
The siblings of the King and his sister-in-law only receive protection when they are performing official duties. Here’s the full list of royals without the protection that Harry is demanding:
