ROYALS:Prince Harry Wants to Be Reconciled After Cancer Scare -King Wont Speak to Him
Prince Harry Says King Wont Speak to Him and He Would Love to Reconcile After Cancer Scare
After losing personal security challenge, Duke of Sussex says he wants to make peace as he does not know how long Charles has to live
BBC 3 MAY 2025
I love my country and my family
The Duke of Sussex has said it is impossible for him to bring his wife and children back to the UK after losing his legal challenge over personal security, and revealed he would love a reconciliation with his family
In an emotional interview with the BBC, Prince Harry said his father, King Charles, would not speak to him because of the security stuff, but said he wanted reconciliation as life was precious and he did not know how long his father, who has been diagnosed with cancer, had left to live.
Speaking in California, where he now lives, Harry, 40, said: For the time being, its impossible for me to take my family back to the UK safely and my father to meet his grandchildren
He added: I cant see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the UK at this point ?
I love my country. I always have done, despite what some people in that country have done. I miss the UK. And its really quite sad I wont be able to show my children my homeland.
Harry had sought to overturn changes to his security provision while in the UK, which were made after he and the Duchess of Sussex stepped away from royal duties in 2020.
He was offered bespoke security, which he felt was inferior and claimed the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures known as Ravec, which authorises security measures, had breached its own terms of reference by not conducting a risk management board RMB before making the decision.
He insisted his father could help resolve the issue, though he had not asked him to intervene. I can only come to the UK safely if I am invited, and there is a lot of control and ability in my fathers hands.
Ultimately, this whole thing could be resolved through him, not by intervening, but by stepping aside and allowing the experts to do what is necessary and to carry out an RMB, he said.
It is understood it would have been constitutionally improper for the king to intervene while the matter was being considered by the government and reviewed by the courts.
Although the royal household provides representation and input into the Ravec decision, Fridays judgment laid out that the chair of the Ravec committee was the decision maker on the provision of security. Royal private offices and private secretaries should be consulted as to the practicalities of the protection measures agreed, the ruling said
Harry said, This is a good old fashioned establishment stitch up. And thats what it feels like.
I would ask Yvette Cooper, the home secretary, to look at this very, very carefully and I would ask her to review Ravec and its members, because if it is an expert body, then what is the royal households role there if it is not to influence and decide what they want for the members of their household?
Of course some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book, of course they will never forgive me for lots of things, but I would love reconciliation with my family.
Charles is controlled by CONSORT Camilla, who would never allow him to intervene and can NEVER be a Queen, by ROYAL Decree
