Prince Harry has claimed that it's "still dangerous" to bring his wife Meghan Markle back to the United Kingdom with him.
The Duke of Sussex recently appeared in ITV’s documentary 'Tabloids on Trial,' where he shared concerns for his family’s safety over four years after they all moved to America.
The former senior royals dropped their duties and packed their bags to start a new life in California after multiple unnerving altercations with the British tabloids as well as the royal institution itself.
Things got so bad that the pair were forced to take legal action against the Mirror Group newspapers after private information was allegedly sourced and published in the press, resulting in a bigger rift between the couple and the British monarchy.
When the four-year-long battle eventually came to a close in December, it was ruled that the company had unlawfully gathered intelligence for stories published about Prince Harry - and he has since been awarded hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.
Speaking for the first time since the result, Harry said he felt "vindicated" by the ruling, calling it a "monumental victory."
Elsewhere he also discussed that despite the win, he still feels that it's still too "dangerous" to bring Markle and his children back to the United Kingdom.
"They pushed me too far," he said in the new ITV doc. "It got to a point where you’re damned if you do and you’re damned if you don’t. But I don’t think there’s anybody in the world better suited and placed to be able to see this through than myself."
He continued: "It’s still dangerous, and all it takes is one lone actor, one person who reads this stuff to act on what they have read. And whether it’s a knife or acid, whatever it is, and these are things that are of genuine concern for me.
"It’s one of the reasons why I won’t bring my wife back to this country," he added.
The 39-year-old also threw a sly dig in there stating: "There is more than enough attention on me and my wife anyway."
He ain't wrong, is he?
The Duke tried to petition to get tax-funded security for him and his family if they were ever to visit his home country, but this motion was denied.
Speaking to the Guardian, Barrister Shaheed Fatima QC spoke about the issue, stating: "This claim is about the fact that the claimant does not feel safe when he is in the UK given the security arrangements that were applied to him in June 2021 and will continue to be applied to him if he returns.
"And, of course, it should go without saying that he wants to come back: to see family and friends and to continue to support the charities that are so close to his heart. Most of all, this is, and always will be, his home," Fatima added.
