Prince Harry is reportedly reconsidering plans to visit the UK with his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, amid ongoing concerns about their security.
The Duke of Sussex, who is expected to travel to England in July with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, is said to be weighing his options after learning that government-funded security would only be provided while the family is inside royal residences.
A source close to the royal household told The Guardian that the family's travel plans were thrown into uncertainty at the "11th hour."
"He's looking at every option to try and get the family here safely and keep them safe when they're on the ground. If he can find a way to do that, he will," the source said.
According to the insider, Harry remains hopeful that his children will be able to spend time with their grandfather. However, they stressed that such a visit would not be possible if the family faced constant attention from paparazzi from the moment they arrived.
"The hope is they can meet their grandfather, but there is no way that can happen if they are chased by paparazzi wherever they go from the moment they step off the plane," the source added. "He won't put his children through that."
Harry has long maintained that security concerns are a major factor in determining whether he and his family can travel to the UK.
