A source close to the Sussexes claims the reinstatement of Prince Harry’s armed security in the UK has been assured. This is after a fresh risk assessment was carried out for Harry by the royal and VIP executive committee (Ravec), according to reports. Ravec includes security officials from the Home Office, the Metropolitan Police and the Royal Household, who work together to advise an independent chairman on who should be protected.

Sources said: “It’s now a formality. Sources at the Home Office have indicated that security is now nailed on for Harry.” The decision to reassess the risk followed a letter the duke wrote to Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood.

Officially, neither the family and the British Government has released statements on the current development.Express.co.uk has contacted the Home Office for comment.
