UK Court Delivers Significant Legal Defeat to Prince Harry
Title: Harry's Heartache: Brits Slam Duke's UK Return
Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, is feeling the heat after the UK courts shut down his appeal for security. Here's the lowdown on the controversy rocking the royal family!
You might have heard Prince Harry's been in a pickle recently. The British court dismissed his plea for security for himself, wife Meghan Markle, and their brood, Archie and Lilibet. Security was reduced when the Sussexes quit their senior royal roles in 2020.
Shortly after the verdict, Harry shared his feelings on the BBC, calling it 'devastating.' He also expressed a longing to make peace with the royals. However, he admited it's hard to imagine bringing his family back to Blighty due to security concerns.
Now, Express.co.uk polled the Brits on whether the Montecito couple should return to the UK. Guess what? A whopping 97% (5,304 votes) said no way! They should stick stateside! Only 3% thought Harry and Meghan should come back.
But why the cold shoulder? Here's the lowdown on the public's loyal opinions.
Controversy and International Laughter: Harry and Meghan continue to be a hot topic, with recent developments and controversies grabbing headlines. Tom Bower's upcoming book may cause more turbulence and strain relations between the Sussexes and the royals[1]. Moreover, the couple was poked fun at on an episode of Saturday Night Live, indicating worldwide ribbing that might affect British public opinion[2].
Royal Snub: Buckingham Palace confirmed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle won't be invited to official royal events. This snub suggests the Palace views their actions as harmful to the Royal Family[3].
Security Questions: Prince Harry's recent legal loss over security concerns has added fuel to the fire. Critics question Harry's claims of security risks, particularly given his reported ordering of food deliveries during his stay in the UK[2].
To sum up, while a few Britons are still backing the couple, many view their actions and statements with suspicion or disapproval. This is particularly true after their public criticisms of the Royal Family.
