The court denied his protection, Prince Harry: My father doesn't speak to
Prince Harry and King Charles

The Duke of Sussex has declared that he would "very much like to have a reconciliation" with the British Royal Family, in an emotional interview in which he said he was "devastated" to have lost a legal challenge with the Court of Appeal in London over his security in the United Kingdom.

In the BBC interview, he revealed that his father, Charles, has not spoken to him for months, adding that he is worried because he does not know how long the king, who underwent cancer surgery a year ago, has left to live. The 40-year-old prince gave an interview to the BBC

The interview from the 40-year-old prince's luxury villa in Montecito, California, comes on the day the Court of Appeal in London stripped him and his family of their right to police protection when visiting the United Kingdom. 

"There were so many disagreements between me and some of my family members, but I have now forgiven them. Some of my family members will never forgive me for writing a book ," he said, referring to his autobiography Spare.

Harry said he was isolated from his father, King Charles III: " He doesn't speak to me because of this security issue ," he said.

The Court of Appeal in London confirmed that there will be no escort for Harry or his family, rejecting the appeal filed by the prince against the decision taken at the time by the British Home Office to revoke the automatic right to police protection for him and his family during visits to the United Kingdom.

The decision was based on the fact that Harry had given up his active role as a senior member of the House of Windsor.

Lawyers for the second son of King Charles III and the late Lady Diana Spencer had raised the issue of possible discrimination compared to other members of the royal family.

But now Harry's interview with the BBC seems to rekindle a spark of hope for resolving the rift and his "flight" to the United States in 2020.

The Duke of Sussex had argued that the security group was a "matter of principle. The UK remains my home and is essential to my children's legacy; but it is not possible to visit it without certain protective measures."

The 40-year-old prince has always been concerned about security: in his autobiography, Spare said he had received threats from terrorist groups such as Al Qaeda, which blamed him for the war in Afghanistan.

He also revealed that he was traumatized as a child when crowds of photographers followed his mother, Lady Diana, until the tragic epilogue of the Alma Tunnel in Paris, when his mother lost her life while being chased by paparazzi.
