Britain Prince Harry
Concerns have arisen regarding Prince Harry’s safety as he prepares to return to the UK for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games in May 2024. The Duke of Sussex, wary of potential risks, requested that the specifics of his appearance be kept confidential, citing sensitive information disclosed in his memoir, “Spare.”
A source revealed, “The prince is expected to return to the UK in May; however, Harry’s team wanted the exact date of the appearance to be kept confidential for safety reasons.” Notably, in his book, Harry disclosed his involvement in military operations, including the killing of 25 Taliban fighters during his service in Afghanistan.
The revelation of Harry’s appearance details on St. Paul’s official website weeks in advance raised alarms regarding his security. The insider emphasized, “The fact that St. Paul’s has published the exact time and date of an event he is due to attend on their official website weeks in advance is seen as a serious security risk.”
Following the book’s release, reports emerged that Al Qaeda had targeted Harry for assassination. Recently, Harry lost a High Court challenge regarding his safety and security arrangements in the UK, challenging a decision by the Executive Committee for Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) made in 2020.
Despite stepping down from the royal family in 2020 and being informed that he would receive reduced protection, Harry remains adamant about appealing the court’s decision. The source stated, “Harry is very adamant about appealing the court’s decision. He wants to spend more time in the UK with his family and doesn’t feel comfortable doing that until his security has been secured.”
While the date of the Invictus Games 10th Anniversary Service has not been officially announced, it is listed for May 8 on St. Paul’s website. The source clarified, “The schedules are always published about six weeks in advance, but the events are usually announced in a different section on the website that is more visible, and that hasn’t been done yet.”
