Questions About Harry’s Memory and Motives

Royal photographer Arthur Edwards echoed the concern, questioning how Harry could forget where his friend lived. “He must have a poor memory or not seen his friends for a long while because he knocked on three or four doors,” Edwards remarked. “It was bizarre, and what was strange was that it was the day when he was in court trying to get the government to pay for his police protection.”

Just eight days earlier, on May 2, Harry had told the BBC he felt “unsafe” traveling in the UK without state-provided protection. He also said the court’s rejection of his appeal was the reason he couldn’t bring Meghan Markle and their children to the country.

Residents React to the Strange Encounter

When Harry mistakenly rang the wrong doorbell, the housekeeper who answered didn’t recognize him. The homeowners later shared, “We only really noticed once neighbors started talking — and then we were like, ‘Oh yes!’” A local witness added, “Two of the houses he knocked at are at completely opposite ends of the road, which is about half a mile long… I don’t think many people would just walk down a road knocking on doors, let alone if you don’t feel safe.”

Further Concerns Over Security Practices

This wasn’t the only recent event that raised eyebrows about Harry’s security behavior. Just days before the doorbell incident, the Duke was seen visiting his friend Lord Charles Vivian at a luxurious Chelsea property. A Deliveroo food delivery was spotted arriving at the £8 million townhouse—something rarely done by royals due to safety precautions.

Former royal bodyguard Ken Wharfe criticized the choice, telling the Daily Mail, “It’s unbelievable that such a high-profile person, who considers themselves to be such a high-security risk, would allow themselves to have a Deliveroo driver arrive at a house with no idea of who they are and what they might be carrying in their bag.”
