Prince Harry loses final bid for taxpayer-funded security



Prince Harry has sensationally lost his appeal against the UK government over taxpayer-funded security.

During a two-day hearing at a London court last month, the Duke of Sussex, 40, claimed he had been singled out for “unjustified and inferior treatment” when he and his family were stripped of publicly funded security detail.

On Friday, Sir Geoffrey Vos, Lord Justice Bean and Lord Justice Edis announced the ruling —which comes as a huge blow to the “Spare” author and his wife, Meghan Markle, who has refused to return to the UK following the late Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022.

The appeal was widely considered to be Harry’s final shot at winning back the security detail.

It is not yet known whether he will be allowed to apply for permission to appeal to the Supreme Court following the ruling.

The Post has reached out to Harry’s reps for comment.
