Overview
- Unnamed sources from the Sussex camp and the Home Office say a RAVEC reassessment has concluded in Harry’s favor, though officials have not confirmed the outcome.
- If implemented, the arrangement would provide automatic, round-the-clock armed police protection during his visits to Britain at public expense.
- Supporters suggest enhanced security could allow Harry to bring Archie and Lilibet to the UK, potentially enabling a reunion with King Charles.
- Harry lost automatic protection after stepping back from royal duties in 2020 and later lost a legal appeal in 2025, leaving visits covered on a case-by-case basis with advance notice.
- Palace insiders and commentators warn that restoring automatic cover for a non-working, non-resident royal could set a contentious precedent and raise concerns over taxpayer costs.
