Harry said he did not know how long the monarch, who has cancer, would live.  Hours after losing a court battle with the British government over his police protection, Harry gave an emotional interview to the BBC in which he said he did not think he would ever be able to bring his family back to Britain.

00:00There have been so many disagreements, differences between me and some of my family.

00:09This current situation that has been ongoing for five years with regard to

00:14human life and safety is the sticking point. It is the only thing that's left.

00:23Of course some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book.

00:26Of course they will never forgive me for lots of things. I would love reconciliation with my family.

00:43There's no point in continuing to fight anymore. As I said, life is precious. I don't know how much

00:49longer my father has. He won't speak to me because of this security stuff.

00:58But it would be nice to reconcile.

01:03I can't see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the UK at this point.

01:10And the things that they're going to miss is, well, everything. I love my country. I always have done.

01:20Despite what some people in that country have done.

01:25So I miss the UK. I miss parts of the UK. Of course I do. And I think that it's really quite sad that I

01:32won't be able to show my children my homeland. I don't want history to repeat itself. I think there's

01:40a lot of other people out there. The majority, they also don't want history to repeat itself.

01:45Through the disclosure process, I've discovered that some people want history to repeat itself,

01:50which is pretty dark. That's quite a statement. Who do you think that is?

01:55I'm not going to share at this point. I have had it described to me once people knew about the facts

02:02that this is an old fashioned, good old fashioned establishment stitch up. And that's what it feels

02:08like. So should Keir Starmer step in? I would ask, yes, I would ask the prime minister to step in.

02:14I would ask Yvette Cooper, the Home Secretary, to look at this very, very carefully. And I would ask her to

02:19review Ravec and its members. At this point, I'm feeling very let down. It's the minority of people,

02:32especially those that read the tabloids and the press themselves. The press themselves have incited

02:36so much hatred towards myself, my wife, and even our children. That's hard to forgive. There are

02:46decisions that have been made. There are things that have happened since 2016, especially throughout

02:51my whole life. But let's just stick since 2016. There are things that have happened that I can now

02:55forgive. I've moved past that. I can forgive my family's involvement, my father, my brother,

03:01and my stepmother. I can forgive the press to a large extent as well for so many things that have

03:08happened. What I'm struggling to forgive and what I will probably always struggle to forgive

03:16is that a decision that was made in 2020 that affects my every single day.

03:23You know, no matter how much private security I have around me, there's only so much that I can do

03:28and operate and function within the UK when it comes to supporting my charities, visiting my friends,

03:34all of these things. So, you know, I've been treated very, very, very differently to everybody else

03:41that exists. All examples that exist, past, present, I have been singled out.

03:48Do you want the court battle to continue? Do you want to try to see this get to the Supreme

03:53Court? I don't want any battles to continue. There is way too much suffering and way too much conflict

03:59in the world. At the heart of it is a family dispute. And it makes me really, really sad that we're

04:05sitting here today, five years later, where a decision that was made, most likely, in fact,

04:13I know, to keep us under the roof. But then once they realized that that wasn't going to work,

04:19once they realized that, you know, myself, my wife and our kids are happier outside of the institution,

04:27then please just look at the facts. I can never leave the royal family. That is my family. That

04:33is my larger family. I left the institution because at the end of the day, I had to. I didn't leave it

04:39in 2020. I left it in 2021. But security was moved and removed in 2020.

05:09Do you wanna do that?

05:11Are you sure to go to that?

05:16Do you have to do that?

05:26What do you want?

05:30Why are you doing that?

05:32If you're doing that, you'll be doing it in 2021.

05:34You can't wait, maybe you're doing it!

05:36But you're doing that right now.
