Prince Harry seems to show his keen interest in returning to the U.K. with his wife, Meghan Markle, and two kids, Archie and Lilibet, by securing their own safety. However, a letter the Duke of Sussex's lawyers issued against Queen Elizabeth II's government revealed it was unsafe for him and his family to travel to his home country without security.

Prince Harry launched a battle against the U.K.'s Home Office in a move to have the right to pay for their own police security when they stay in Britain. As a non-working royal family member after stepping down from his royal duties back in 2020, his police protection has been removed since then.

Express noted the request for police protection hints at the Sussexes' plan to return to the U.K. in time for Her Majesty's Platinum Jubilee celebrations in the upcoming spring. With that being said, Prince Harry is very much willing to pay for his protection himself instead of billing it to the British taxpayers.

So, his lawyers are now making a "pre-action protocol" letter to the Home Office to show that they will "seek judicial review" if the U.K. Government will provide the police security that he needs. If the legal case pushes through, it is believed to turn into a costly dispute in the High Court between the prince and the Government ministers.

This action that Prince Harry takes is, reportedly, the first time in history that a royal family member takes a legal case against Queen Elizabeth's government.

Meanwhile, if Meghan's husband gets denied security, it will not be the first time it happens. The statement revealed a legal representative claimed Prince Harry first offered to pay for his and his family's police protection personally in January 2020 at Sandringham, but that had been "dismissed," per Hello Magazine.

Since then, he has, reportedly, requested for police protection again that will be paid through his own pockets, but it has been refused. Now, he is asking for a judicial review of the decision.

Though the controversial prince has left his senior royal post, the U.K. will always be his home. It is a country where he may visit everyone once in a while with his kids and wife, so he wants them to be safe in this place.

Prince Harry's legal representative explained that his client had inherited a security risk at birth and would remain for life. Despite his issues with the royal family, he is still the sixth in line to the throne, has served two tours of combat duty in Afghanistan and subjected to "well-documented neo-Nazi and extremist threats."

Though Prince Harry's role in the institution has changed, his profile as a royal family member remains. This, too, includes the threat to his and his family's safety.
