The Duke of Sussex felt Frogmore was 'the last safe place in the UK for him and his family', according to GB News's Digital Editor

Prince Harry's security fears have been "deepened by his failure to find a UK base" without the Royal Family's help, GB News's Digital Editor has claimed.

On the latest episode of The Royal Record Podcast, GB News's Royal Correspondent Cameron Walker and the Digital Editor Svar Nanan-Sen spoke about the recent developments within the Royal Family, including the fact the Duke of Sussex no longer has a permanent UK home.


Prince Harry, 39, and Meghan Markle, 42, were evicted from Frogmore Cottage in 2023, after spending five months living in the property in 2019 before stepping down as working royals.

The couple were evicted just after the publication of the duke's tell-all memoir, Spare.

In the year that followed, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have still not purchased a permanent UK base.

In the latest episode of The Royal Record Podcast, Svar said: "[Harry] said he felt Frogmore Cottage was the last safe place in the UK for him and his family.

"We haven't seen Meghan, Archie or Lilibet in the UK since they left the royal residence, and we haven't seen Harry find another UK home.

"He's not got a property that he can stay at in the UK, so that's another aspect to it."

The Duke of Sussex was stripped of his police protection by the Home Office when visiting the UK after stepping down as a working royal in 2020, which Harry then challenged through the High Court.

Retired High Court judge Sir Peter Lane rejected the duke’s case to appeal the verdict in February 2024 and concluded the Home Office's approach was not irrational nor procedurally unfair.

Harry lost an initial attempt to appeal but was able to ask the Court of Appeal directly for permission to challenge Lane’s decision.

Earlier this month, Harry was granted permission to appeal against the dismissal of his High Court challenge.

Cameron argued that Harry could be "upset" that King Charles, 75, and Prince William, 42, are "not supporting Harry when it comes to this case against the UK".

He explained: "What might be upsetting Harry even more when we talk about the relationships, is what he would see as a lack of support from his father or his brother when it comes to this case against the UK.

"Now, from the King and William's perspective, they can't get involved in a decision from a Home Office committee. That's up to them.

"We would usually hear rumours of someone trying to pull the strings behind the scenes, and there's been none of that, which suggests to me that they're leaving Harry to deal with it on his own."
