Prince Harry has opened up about his shock and frustration over the removal of his police protection, which he believes was part of an effort to trap him and Meghan Markle within the Royal Family.
In a new revelation shared with The Telegraph, the Duke of Sussex described how hearing the details in a recent court case confirmed his “worst fears.”
A Difficult Pill to Swallow
Prince Harry confessed that learning of the decision to strip him and Meghan of their security was especially hard to accept.
He said it was a particularly tough moment for both him and his wife, as they faced increasing challenges following their exit from royal duties.
The decision to take away their police protection is now seen by Harry as a key factor in the ongoing tension between him and the rest of the Royal Family, particularly his father, King Charles.
Secret Evidence and the Rift With King Charles
According to Harry, secret evidence presented during the court case has shed light on the underlying motives behind the protection removal.
While the specifics of the evidence remain confidential, Harry suggested that the move was strategic, adding to the strain of his already complicated relationship with his family.
The situation has only deepened the divide, with the Duke expressing how difficult it has been to reconcile with his royal roots.
