A two-day hearing this week sat partly in private to hear confidential evidence as the duke challenges the dismissal of his High Court claim against the Home Office over the decision of the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures that he should receive a different degree of protection when in the UK.

The Telegraph reported Harry was unhappy with what he heard.

Speaking to the newspaper as he left the Royal Courts of Justice, he said “people would be shocked by what’s being held back,” adding that his “worst fears have been confirmed by the whole legal disclosure in this case and that’s really sad”.

Before entering the church today, the King and Queen were given a hand-written manuscript of a new piece of music, called The Weather of My Being, by its composer Professor Paul Mealor.

Professor Mealor, who has created music for a number of royal events including Prince and Princess of Wales’s wedding and several of Charles’s birthdays, also gave the the Royal couple a volume containing all the music he composed for their coronation in 2023.

The composer said he decided to mark Charles and Camilla’s anniversary by “set(ting) great poetry to music”, which he said combined the King’s love of music with the Queen’s love of literature.

He added: “So I wrote it, and then sent it to them, and then they said, ‘why not perform it now, just literally after the wedding anniversary?’

“So we had the premiere today at the service, which was very powerful”.
