Only the Duke of Sussex can leave Frogmore Cottage, a mansion within Windsor Castle, to take part in the main events of the coronation. Harry will have security at the event, as he did at Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral last year.
Tay Davies, the Metropolitan Police’s former head of state security, told the British tabloid Mirror: “If Harry is as concerned about his safety as he has made clear to the High Court, he faces the prospect of a life under house arrest.” .
The security expert added that the prince will be protected by police when he attends major events, but he will have to pay for his own security if he wants to do any other tours.
Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, stepped down as senior royals in January 2020. Disagreements with Buckingham Palace and the irritation of the media invasion were the main reasons. Since then, the couple has been living in California, USA.
