A judge denied that offer after a government lawyer argued that officers shouldn't be used as “private bodyguards for the wealthy.” The 39-year-old prince is challenging the decision by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures to provide his security on a “case by case” basis after moving in 2020 to Canada and then California, where he and his family now reside. Harry says he wants security provided when he and his family are in the UK He said Edward Young, the assistant private secretary to the late Queen Elizabeth II, should not have been on the committee because of “significant tensions” between the two men.
