Buckingham Palace has issued a statement after Prince Harry's bombshell interview

He said: "There is a lot of control and ability in my father's hand, ultimately this whole thing could be resolved through him not necessarily by intervening but by stepping aside allowing the experts to do what is necessary."

However, following the ruling, a palace spokesperson said: "All of these issues have been examined repeatedly and meticulously by the courts, with the same conclusion reached on each occasion."

When asked by the BBC, if he had asked his father to intervene in the dispute, Harry said: 'I never asked him to intervene - I asked him to step out of the way and let the experts do their jobs.

"The Ravec committee is an expert committee full of professionals plus the royals."

Harry added that he felt "unsafe" in the UK and would not bring his wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, or their two children to his homeland.

He said: "I can't see a world in which I will be bringing my wife and children back to the UK at this point and the things they are going to miss is everything.

"I love my country and always have done. Despite what some people in that country have done. So I miss the UK. I miss parts of the UK. Of course I do. I think it's really quite sad that I won't be able to show my children my homeland."

Harry spoke out after he lost his battle for taxpayer-funded armed police bodyguards when in the UK.

He was told his "grievance" over downgraded security had not "translated into a legal argument".

He had been appealing the dismissal of his High Court claim against the Home Office over the decision of the ex ecutive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) that he should receive a different degree of protection when in the country.

Sir Geoffrey Vos, Master of the Rolls said in his ruling that Ravec's decision was "taken as an understandable, and perhaps predictable, reaction to the claimant having stepped back from royal duties and having left the UK to live principally overseas".

In 2020, Harry and his wife Meghan stepped back from their royal duties and moved to Canada, before settling in California.
