Prince Harry Police Presence at London Event Explained

Police officers were called to one of Prince Harry's events in London on Tuesday due to concerns that the media and crowds had gathered were obstructing the road and public footpath, the Daily Express understands.

Police Presence at Chatham House

Two unarmed officers from the Metropolitan Police were seen alongside Harry's security team at Chatham House just before the Duke left an Invictus Games event. The Daily Express reported that the officers were called there specifically due to obstruction concerns, not because of any security threat to the Duke.

Prince Harry began his five-day visit to the UK on Tuesday, after a chaotic few days of various statements from his team and Buckingham Palace over his accommodation and travel plans.

Security and Family Arrangements

The Duke was reportedly denied taxpayer-funded police protection after a review of his threat level in the UK had not yet been released. This resulted in his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, not joining him in London due to security fears.

Today, Harry is set to attend engagements linked to his charities. The Duke's visit continues amidst ongoing legal proceedings and family drama.
