Prince Harry<\/strong><\/a> was reportedly affected by his latest security setback, while royal experts claimed his family has little sympathy for the situation.<\/p>\n

“My understanding is that Harry was deeply emotional,” Kinsey Schofield<\/strong>, host of “Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered,” told Fox News Digital <\/em><\/a>after a source told Vanity Fair<\/em><\/a> that the Duke of Sussex “was devastated and close to tears.”<\/p>\n

Royal experts said the ongoing security dispute has further strained Prince Harry’s relationship with King Charles and the royal family.MEGA<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Harry’s reported emotional reaction followed the U.K. government’s refusal of his request for police protection for his family outside royal residences.<\/a><\/p>\n

Schofield said, “[For the royal family], there is exhaustion. The king is frustrated, Prince William<\/strong> is detached, and the broader family has very little appetite for another round of Sussex drama.”<\/p>\n

Harry traveled to Britain alone on July 6 and will remain there through July 11 for events connected to the Invictus Games<\/a>. It remains unclear whether he will meet King Charles<\/strong><\/a>during the visit or ifMeghan Markle<\/strong><\/a> and their children will join him.<\/p>\n

Schofield described William as the family’s “biggest realist,” explaining that the Prince of Wales now makes decisions based on what is best for the monarchy.<\/p>\n

“He’s the future of the monarchy, so he views every decision through the lens of protecting the institution he will inherit,” she said.<\/p>\n

“That naturally makes him more cautious than sentimental. He is a good judge of character, and I’m told he no longer recognizes Prince Harry,” she added. “Those are very different perspectives, and history suggests heirs are often less willing to take institutional risks than reigning monarchs.”<\/p>\n

Harry’s Legal Loss Added to a Difficult Week<\/h2>\n

Prince Harry faced another setback after losing his privacy lawsuit against Associated Newspapers Limited.MEGA<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Harry’s visit became even more challenging after he lost his privacy lawsuit<\/a> against Associated Newspapers Limited, publisher of the Daily Mail<\/em> and The<\/em>Mail on Sunday<\/em>, on July 7.<\/p>\n

The case involved Harry and six other claimants, including Elton John<\/strong><\/a> and Elizabeth Hurley<\/strong><\/a>. The High Court dismissed their claims after finding they failed to prove unlawful information gathering.<\/p>\n

Associated Newspapers Limited called the ruling an “overwhelming victory” and a “magnificent vindication,” while Harry said the court had denied him the accountability he was seeking.<\/p>\n

Royal expert Hilary Fordwich<\/strong><\/a> told Fox News Digital<\/em> the legal defeat has been stressful for the king, but added that Harry’s situation was largely self-inflicted.<\/p>\n

“Members of the royal family don’t file such lawsuits, let alone lose on all counts in a highly public court case that Harry himself chose to file,” she said.<\/p>\n

She added, “With everything dismissed, he, along with the other claimants, will now be responsible for court costs. Harry initially being in tears wouldn’t be surprising at all. Everything is of his own doing, which must make it even more painful. He chose to leave royal life.”<\/p>\n
