The late Queen Elizabeth II emphasized the necessity of maintaining effective security for Harry and Meghan Markle even after they stepped down as senior working royals.

Her senior aide highlighted that ensuring their safety was of paramount importance due to their public profiles and past threats.

This contradicts the narrative that the Duke and Duchess were cut off by the royal family.

This is evidenced by a letter from Sir Edward Young to Sir Mark Sedwill, submitted in court to clarify

whether Harry had offered to fund his own security amidst legal disputes over the level of taxpayer-funded protection he should receive after stepping back from royal duties.

The duo has no relevance or importance to the UK, the US, or anywhere else.

They are not statesmen, diplomats, or heads of state and should not be afforded the security or any of the other amenities afforded such people. Harry is related to a royal family, as are thousands of people around the world. Other than that, they are ordinary want-to-be celebrities and can pay for their own security like any other ordinary citizen. They are as ordinary as they come. What sets them apart is not any great work, great philanthropy, or talent, but their uncommonly over-the-top sense of entitlement, greed, need for attention, willingness to sell out their families for money, incredible ability to find things to be aggrieved about, and for which they regularly seek revenge. Their total lack of gratitude and utter lack of responsibility causes them to always blame others for their problems and failures. Those qualities may make them people of some interest and comedy, but they don’t make them people of substance.

As in many things Harry has said and done since leaving the working royals, he has failed to think things through, as marked by his desperate marriage and move to the USA. Many of his interviews and publications can be fact-checked. His cousins and other family members have survived very well without a legion of tough security individuals. He has chosen to live in a far more dangerous country where at least half the population owns guns and some have enough arms to provide a regiment. If there is danger anywhere, it’s where he currently lives. If he and Meghan stopped stirring the pot, they would fade into obscurity, and visits to the UK would be of no interest. Princess Diana did not announce all her visits to charities and hospitals she supported, so why do the Sussexes need to every time? They are now private individuals who chose to break ties with the royal family. Of course, the government should not be responsible for Harry’s security. He wants the UK to supply security when they go on vacation anywhere in the world. Why should the UK government be responsible for a duo that doesn’t represent the royal family anymore? Is this their new PR trying to stir up more trouble?

Harry does get adequate security when he is in Britain, the same security that almost all other royal family members receive. Only the King, Queen Camilla, Prince William, Catherine, Princess of Wales, and their children receive the top level of police protection. All other royal family members only receive security while carrying out official royal duties. This supposed secret letter from the late queen, Harry’s grandmother, will carry no extra weight toward Harry’s demands for the kind of protection he wants simply because he is not entitled to it. What makes him think he is superior to other royal family members? He is not. He was told at the Sandringham meeting exactly what leaving his royal duties would mean—all the implications, all the loss of privileges that came with the role of a working royal. He was given a very generous one whole year to consider the implications, so he cannot now expect or demand any changes to that legal and permanent agreement.

Queen Elizabeth II had deep affection for her grandson Harry, but it raises the question: do they truly deserve the security and comforts funded by taxpayers? Taxpayers’ money should serve clear community purposes rather than supporting those deemed unnecessary. If they desire such luxuries, they should finance them themselves. Exploiting royal fame and assets shouldn’t be done so effortlessly, especially when it remains a dream for many. No amount of security will keep the wrath of the British public from them. They could have armed guards and tanks surrounding them, but the public won’t let them forget what they think of them. They could have wrecked barriers, employed armed guards, and deployed military tanks to shield themselves, yet the public’s sentiment towards them runs deeper than any physical defense. Their choices and behaviors have etched a lasting impression in the minds of the people, one that cannot be erased by mere displays of protection. The scrutiny they face stems not just from their status but from the perceptions they’ve fostered through their actions and decisions. In the eyes of many, their privilege and entitlement contrast sharply with the realities faced by ordinary citizens. This stark divide fuels a sense of disapproval and disillusionment that no amount of security can mitigate.
