Prince Harry's planned UK visit with Meghan and children draws security concerns

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are set to travel to the United Kingdom in July with their children Archie and Lilibet, their first trip to Britain since the summer of 2022. Buckingham Palace has offered them accommodation in a royal residence for the stay, and the itinerary includes low‑key engagements linked to the Invictus Games scheduled for 2027 in Birmingham, though the children will not take part in official events.

The visit is being weighed against ongoing security issues. Harry lost his automatic state protection after stepping back from royal duties in 2020, and he has repeatedly said he does not feel safe in the UK without a dedicated police guard. Concerns remain about paparazzi and the safety of the children, and the couple may seek a meeting with King Charles III but are not expected to appear publicly with the kids. No formal announcement has confirmed or cancelled the trip.
