Prince Harry issues blistering statement hours after bombshell BBC interview airing his grievance against King Charles and royal household

Harry continued: ‘This legal action has been a last resort, but one that has uncovered shocking truths, starting with the fact that the Royal Household are key decision-makers on RAVEC and my sole representation for matters regarding my safety.

‘In this process I’ve also learned the names of all those involved, many of whom retired immediately after playing their part.’

He added: ‘To this present day, the Royal Household remain my sole representation on RAVEC for evert visit and could call for this assessment to be done at any point.

‘The only possible conclusion that can be drawn is they choose not to, because they know the outcome would prove that my security should never have been removed in the first place.’

Harry went on to detail that he and his family had been ‘subjected’ to threats made by neo-Nazis and extremist groups, including Al-Qaeda.

The Duke of Sussex said he would be writing to Home Secretary Yvette Cooper asking her to ‘urgently examine the matter and review the Ravec process’.

The Duke of Sussex last night launched a blistering attack on King Charles, saying he ‘won’t speak to me’ and that he ‘doesn’t know how much longer he has left’.

He also revealed he will not bring his wife or children back to the UK – and said he had had ‘so many disagreements’ with his family, some of whom ‘may never forgive’ him for writing a book.

Reflecting on Harry’s BBC interview, royal expert Professor Kate Williams questioned whether the seemingly ‘angry and resentful’ duke could ever repair his relationship his father.

‘This is a very significant moment in what will be written about by the historians of the future about Harry,’ she told Sky News
