Insiders told <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/robshuter.substack.com\/p\/exclusive-palace-fears-prince-harry\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Rob Shuter\u2019s Naughty But Nice;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Rob Shuter\u2019s Naughty But Nice&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Rob Shuter\u2019s Naughty But Nice<\/a> that the Duke of Sussex insists that any U.K. trip should recognize his position as King Charles\u2019 son.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Buckingham Palace, however, is determined not to give the impression that he and Meghan Markle are arriving for an official royal engagement. \u201cHarry believes he should be treated the way the Prince and Princess of Wales are when they travel overseas,\u201d shared a royal insider. \u201cHe wants the full royal treatment because, in his mind, he\u2019s still a prince.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">But Palace officials see it differently. They want to steer clear of headlines framing the trip as an official visit by the American prince and princess. With the Sussexes no longer working royals, the Palace insists that the public image must match their status.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Insiders say that every element will be scrutinized. From Harry\u2019s family\u2019s lodging and official greeters to transport, security protocols, and potential public engagements. \u201cThis isn\u2019t about being petty\u2014it\u2019s about protecting the institution,\u201d noted a royal insider. \u201cWilliam and Catherine represent the Crown. Harry and Meghan do not. The Palace can\u2019t blur that line, even for a day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">According to a longtime royal observer, both sides understand the implications. The Royal Family values optics, and Harry and Markle do too. The duke is looking for recognition of his status as the king\u2019s son, while the Palace intends for the public to see the monarchy as it exists today. That\u2019s why each element of any visit may become subject to negotiation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The post <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\/news\/1804865-prince-harry-uk-trip-royal-treatment\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Prince Harry Wants \u2018Royal Treatment\u2019, but Palace Thinks Otherwise \u2014 Source;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Prince Harry Wants \u2018Royal Treatment\u2019, but Palace Thinks Otherwise \u2014 Source&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Prince Harry Wants \u2018Royal Treatment\u2019, but Palace Thinks Otherwise \u2014 Source<\/a> appeared first on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Mandatory;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Mandatory&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A source claims that Prince Harry continues to seek \u201croyal treatment\u201d for his security during U.K. visits.
