'Furious' Prince Harry 'still expects apology' from Royal Family as he begins news life in UK

Prince Harry is “just as angry” as when he left Britain six years ago and “expects an apology” from the Royal Family, friends of the Duke reportedly claim.Harry, his wife Meghan and their two children Archie and Lilibet returned to the UK to live earlier this week.It is the first time the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have lived in the UK since quitting as working royals in 2020 and moving to the US.Relations with senior royals hit rock bottom soon after the move after a series of bombshell revelations in Harry's memoir, Spare, and in several TV interviews, including one with Oprah Winfrey. The return of Harry raised hopes of mending his relationship with his older brother William, and a further reconciliation with his father the King.A source told the newspaper: “Friends who caught up with Harry were expecting to hear noises of contrition and humility.“Instead, there will be no imminent mea culpa from Harry by the sounds of things. Far from it, in fact. He is still in that Oprah mindset.“They were agog to hear he still feels angry with members of the Royal Family, is still frustrated by the "men in grey suits" who surround his father, and still expects an apology.”Harry and Meghan have returned to live in the UK for an ‘extended period’ (Jonathan Brady/PA)PA WireHarry has repeatedly accused aides of trying to sabotage his reconciliation with King Charles, echoing the same language used by his mother, Princess Diana, about royal courtiers who, she believed, were trying to undermine her, the Mail on Sunday reported.Read MoreThe Duke is said to be settling in the UK with his wife and children for an “extended period” of time amid speculation as to how long they will stay and where they will live, with the Cotswolds being suggested as the most likely destination. The pair have yet to speak publicly about their plans.Many questions remain unanswered, including whether taxpayers will foot the bill for their security.Prime Minister Andy Burnham would previously not be drawn on Harry and Meghan’s security arrangements in the UK, saying the funding for it was a “private matter”.Harry previously insisted it was too dangerous to bring his wife and children to the UK with the security he was entitled to post-Megxit.The return of Harry to the UK raised hopes of reconciliation with his familyPA ArchiveIn a further development in the row, the Duke of Sussex has accused the chair of the body which authorises protection for senior royals of not passing on information about a 2023 threat from al Qaida to his security staff or to the authorities in the United States.Harry, a former soldier who served in Afghanistan, wrote to Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood this month asking her to take a personal role in determining if his family receive close police protection.In the letter, his legal team is understood to have alleged the head of the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) was aware of a threat made by al Qaida, but did not pass this to his security staff or to the authorities in the United States, where he was living at the time, The Sunday Times reported.Individual decisions on protective security for key public figures, including members of the royal family, are made by Ravec, which includes the Home Office, Metropolitan Police and Royal Household, which advises an independent chairperson.A long-awaited risk assessment, carried out on the orders of Ravec, is said have taken place at the end of July, but Harry reportedly does not know the result.It comes after he lost a legal battle against the Home Office over the security arrangements for him and his family while in the UK, after his level of protection changed when he stopped being a working royal.
