Prince Harry has been accused of trying to 'set a trap' for King Charles over taxpayer-funded security as he plans a high-profile return to the UK with Meghan Markle and their two children, reportedly scheduled to be their first family trip back since 2022.
The latest row centres on where Prince Harry, Meghan, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet will stay and who will pay to protect them. King Charles is understood to have offered the Sussexes accommodation at a royal lodge on the Windsor estate, a gesture seen by many courtiers as an olive branch after years of tension. According to royal commentator Richard Eden, however, Harry has refused to accept the offer unless it comes with round-the-clock police protection funded by the British taxpayer.
