Overview
- Multiple outlets, citing the Telegraph, report a known stalker approached Harry twice in September, with private staff physically blocking her each time.
- The incidents were reported at the WellChild Awards at London’s Royal Lancaster Hotel and two days later near Imperial College London’s Centre for Blast Injury Studies.
- The woman was identified by Harry’s team from a private list of fixated individuals and is alleged to have followed the couple internationally, including in Nigeria in 2024.
- Scotland Yard declined to discuss the incidents; a single Daily Mail report says the Met voluntarily provided protection on the WellChild day, while there was no police presence at the Imperial College visit.
- The episode follows the Court of Appeal’s May ruling that Harry’s UK security be handled on a case-by-case basis, with former counter-terror chief Neil Basu calling the lack of a fresh risk assessment a mistake.
