Prince Harry has expressed his desire to reconcile with his family after losing a major court case over U.K. security, a decision he says fractured his relationship with King Charles III. In a BBC interview, Harry revealed the emotional toll of being denied publicly funded protection, stating it put his family's safety at risk. Despite strained ties, he hopes for peace as the King battles cancer. The judgment also saddles Harry with legal costs and continues a years-long battle with palace officials, the British government, and the press. #PrinceHarry #KingCharles #RoyalFamily #HarryCourtCase #UKSecurity #HarryAndMeghan #BuckinghamPalace #Reconciliation #RoyalRift #BBCInterview #HarryVsState #RoyalNews #RoyalDrama #HarryStatement #HarryCourtLoss #RoyalSecurity #UKCourtRuling #CharlesCancer #SussexSaga #FamilyTies Also Read Chair of Sentebale Accuses Prince Harry of Orchestrating Bullying Campaign Amid Resignation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/chair-of-african-charity-accuses-prince-harry-of-bullying-011-4109881.html?ref=DMDesc King Charles III Briefly Hospitalised For Observation Following Side Effects From Cancer Treatment :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/king-charles-iii-briefly-hospitalised-for-observation-following-side-effects-from-cancer-treatment-4107317.html?ref=DMDesc King Charles III Celebrates Healthcare Workers in Heartfelt Christmas Message Amid Royal Illnesses :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/king-charles-iii-christmas-message-healthcare-workers-011-4025931.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.85~GR.344~
