Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Msrkle are members of the British Royal family. He met Meghan, an actor in a popular TV drama “Suits” and the pair married in 2018. They have two children Archie and Lilibet. In 2020, they decided to step down from royal duties and relocated in America. A spokesperson for the royal confirmed that Harry would not attend the memorial service of his grandfather Prince Philip scheduled for March 29. However, Harry does have plans to visit Queen Elizabeth II, his grandmother, at the earliest. He and Meghan have not traveled to Britain with their children since they stepped down from their royal lives in March 2020.
Prince Philip expired on April 9 and laid to rest April 17. The funeral was a low-key affair with a limited number of people because of COVID-19 restrictions. Harry had come to attend the funeral service in April 2021 but would not be present for the memorial service. They are not entitled to get police protection while in Britain. That is the effect of leaving the royal duties,. He does have his own security while in California but he feels that would not be adequate in Britain. He has taken up the matter for a judicial review of a Home Office decision. The Metropolitan Police provides a special taxpayer-funded security force for senior royals but Harry and Meghan are not eligible for that because they do not fall in the category of senior royals.
