The post came after Prince Harry, 40, revealed he lost his protracted legal battle to keep taxpayer-funded security arrangements in the UK, the New York Post reported.
The Duke of Sussex claimed that his security was wrongfully terminated after leaving royal duties and relocating to the US in 2020.
The legal panel that made the ruling stated that Harry should not be granted publicly funded security because he no longer has royal responsibilities.
In an interview with the BBC, Prince Harry expressed his continued hope for a reconciliation with his family despite several "disagreements, differences". He said he was "devastated" by the ruling of the court.
Following the Friday ruling, Harry said, "The United Kingdom is my birthplace and will always be part of who I am."
Prince Harry contested the government's decision to reduce his protection but lost his initial lawsuit against the Royal and VIP Executive Committee [RAVEC] in February 2024, PEOPLE reported.
He also revealed to the BBC that his father, King Charles III, no longer communicates with him due to the legal issue.
Despite missing the UK, the Duke of Sussex said he probably won't bring his wife and children to the country again.
"I don't see a scenario where I would return to the UK with my wife and kids, right now," Prince Harry said.

Glen Powell's ex addresses Sydney Sweeney cheating rumours, recalls what he said to her: ‘I was just fed to the dogs'
Glen Powell's ex-girlfriend, Gigi Paris, recently broke her silence on their high-profile split. The duo first made headlines when they started dating around early 2020 after being spotted together on a romantic trip. They went Instagram official in 2021 and stayed together for three years. However, in 2023, while Glen was filming his romantic comedy Anyone But You in Australia with Sydney Sweeney, rumours started surfacing that the co-stars' chemistry had spilled off-screen. At the time, Gigi and Powell's relationship had already landed in trouble, partly because of the distance, but the rumours made things more difficult. By April 2023, Gigi and Glen had officially broken up. Now, Gigi is giving a rare insight into what went down. On the Too Much podcast, hosted by Emma Klipstein, Paris revealed exactly how hurtful and messy the entire situation was for her. Referring to the wild speculations, she said, 'I could either pretend like I was going along with everything and have everyone wonder, like, 'Are they hooking up? Are they not hooking up? Is she okay with this? What the f—?' Or stand up for myself and say, 'No, I'm actually not okay with this, and I'm walking away.' So that's what I decided to do… I was shattered.' (Via People) Also read: Sydney Sweeney calls herself 'really vicious', says it's 'kind of psychotic' how she jumps in character: 'I feel bad for my co-stars' Klipstein pressed Paris on whether she ever received clarity from Powell about their relationship, and if there was any moment that stuck with her. The model described an incident when she was supposed to fly to Australia to visit him. He told her that he and the producers decided it would be best if she didn't visit. That phone call completely broke her. 'And that's when I hung up. And I was like, this motherf—– is done to me,' she added. 'I think that's where I just also fell out of love… I was like, where the f— are your balls to stand up for yourself?' Still, she flew to Australia to confront him face to face, but claimed she wasn't allowed anywhere near the movie set or production. She was stuck there for two weeks for work, but was kept away from Glen's filming activities. She called the entire experience 'very bizarre.' Paris also said she was frustrated that Glen never publicly defended her while people speculated that he and Sydney were secretly together. All he had to do was publicly deny the rumours and say, 'I would never cheat on my girlfriend.' But he never said anything like that, which made her feel abandoned. Later, it was suggested that the rumours around Glen and Sydney's 'flirty behaviour' during the film's promotions were part of a publicity stunt to create buzz and help sell the movie. 'And I honestly hoped that they'd end up together, because I was like, at least it would make it worth it for me, you know? I hope they are in love or whatnot,' she said. Also read: Sydney Sweeney opens up about leaked Euphoria 3 picture, says her character Cassie 'is worse than ever' Even today, Gigi says she doesn't know for sure if Glen actually cheated on her or not. She claimed all she had heard were different versions of the story. But what she wanted was respect, which she never received. 'Like, don't make an a** out of me. Like, just don't make a fool out of someone you've been with for over three years, talking about forever with. Just have some decency, you know? And at the end of the day, it was like, well, work comes first. And if that's the case, power to you, that's your priority. I gotta walk away. What su*** was how it was handled. I felt like I was just fed to the dogs.' Sydney Sweeney, meanwhile, was engaged to Jonathan Davino during the time of promotions. The duo ended their relationship earlier this year. Sydney once remarked that fans love seeing onscreen couples flirt offscreen, and both she and Glen leaned into those rumours because it helped sell the movie. Meanwhile, Glen, for his part, later admitted that the promotions were hard for him because he was going through a real breakup while pretending to have fun with Sydney for the movie's press tour.

Mohammed Siraj, son of auto driver, gets emotional about father's profession; actress reacts
Netizens react About Siraj's upcoming series As the Indian cricket team lands in England for the high-stakes five-match Test series, all eyes are on the beginning of a new era—one without legends like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in whites. Amid intense preparations for the upcoming WTC cycle , fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has turned the spotlight onto something far more personal—and a deeply emotional Instagram post, Siraj reflected on his journey from the narrow lanes of Hyderabad to the grandeur of Lord's, crediting his late father, an auto-rickshaw driver, for the values that shaped him. The cricketer reflected on his journey from being the son of an auto-rickshaw driver to representing India on the world stage. Grateful for every opportunity, he shared how his background, once mocked during his low moments, is actually his greatest strength. His father's relentless hard work taught him the value of persistence and humility. Siraj recalled long walks home after practice, the hunger that shaped him, and how criticism often reduces his story to a stereotype. He questioned why it's so hard for people to see themselves in others, stressing that everyone is striving for a better life, regardless of where they come from. His message was clear: success doesn't ask about your background; it only sees your post quickly went viral, garnering thousands of reactions from fans and public figures alike. Among them was actress Zainai Bhosle—Siraj's close friend, singer, and Asha Bhosle's granddaughter—who expressed admiration for his flooded social media with support. Many from Hyderabad said they felt represented every time he stepped onto the pitch. Others praised him for showing that success is not defined by background but by determination and India prepares to face England in iconic venues like Lord's, Edgbaston, and Old Trafford from June to August 2025, Siraj will play a key role in India's pace attack. Former bowling coach Bharat Arun recently lauded his adaptability and control, saying Siraj's ability to read conditions and use angles will be critical, especially with the Dukes ball in swinging English conditions.

BBC releases documentary on Sidhu Moosewala on YouTube despite father seeking ban on screening
The BBC World Service on Wednesday released a documentary on the killing of slain Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, on YouTube in two parts. The documentary was released at 5 am, even though Moosewala's father, Balkaur Singh Sidhu, petitioned a court in Punjab's Mansa to stop its release or screening. The Mansa court has listed Balkaur Singh's petition for a hearing Thursday. The BBC was scheduled to screen the documentary in a cinema hall in Mumbai Wednesday evening. However, after the controversy, the BBC released it on YouTube. Balkaur Singh also wrote a letter to Maharashtra's director general of police (DGP) to stop the screening. In the complaint filed with the Maharashtra DGP and Mumbai's Juhu Police Station, Balkaur Singh Sidhu said that BBC World Service was organising a programme on June 11 at 3 pm to screen the documentary in Juhu. He contended that the documentary was made without his permission, and also alleged it contained false content about his son's murder. In his complaint to the Maharashtra DGP, his father sought to ban the screening of BBC World Service's documentary on his son, alleging that it could be an attempt to tarnish his legacy. He raised concerns that the documentary might reveal previously unpublished facts. Balkaur Singh also said the documentary includes interviews with individuals named in the First Information Report (FIR) related to his son's murder, which he believes could affect the ongoing legal case. He requested that the screening of the documentary, scheduled for June 11, be stopped and has indicated that he might take legal action if his concerns are not addressed. The singer was shot dead on May 29, 2022, near Mansa.
