Prince Harry says King Charles doesn’t speak to him and he wants reconciliation | BBC News


Prince Harry has told the BBC he "would love a reconciliation" with the Royal Family, in an emotional interview in which the Duke of Sussex said he was "devastated" at losing a legal challenge over his security in the UK. Prince Harry said King Charles "won't speak to me because of this security stuff", but that he did not want to fight anymore and did "not know how much longer my father has". The Prince was speaking after losing an appeal over the levels of security he and his family are entitled to while in the UK. Buckingham Palace said: "All of these issues have been examined repeatedly and meticulously by the courts, with the same conclusion reached on each occasion." After Friday's court ruling, the prince said: "I can't see a world in which I would bring my wife and children back to the UK at this point…. There have been so many disagreements between myself and some of my family," he added, but had now "forgiven" them. "I would love reconciliation with my family. There's no point continuing to fight any more, life is precious," said Prince Harry, who said the dispute over his security had "always been the sticking point". The prince had wanted to overturn changes to his security that were introduced in 2020 as he stepped down as a working royal and moved to the United States. Saying that he felt "let down", he described his court defeat as a "good old fashioned establishment stitch up" and blamed the Royal Household for influencing the decision to reduce his security. Asked whether he had asked the King to intervene in the dispute over security, Prince Harry said: "I never asked him to intervene - I asked him to step out of the way and let the experts do their jobs." The prince said his treatment during the process of deciding his security had "uncovered my worst fears". He said of the decision: "I'm devastated - not so much as devastated with the loss that I am about the people behind the decision, feeling as though this is okay. Is it a win for them?" He continued: "I'm sure there are some people out there, probably most likely the people that wish me harm, [who] consider this a huge win." Prince Harry said the decision to remove his automatic security entitlement impacts him "every single day", and has left him in a position where he can only safely return to the UK if invited by the Royal Family - as he would get sufficient security in those circumstances.
