Prince Harry once asked for police protection after receiving murder threats from al-Qaeda terrorists, according to a court summary released Thursday.

The request followed the removal of his taxpayer-funded security after he and wife Meghan Markle stepped down as senior working members of the royal family and moved to the US in early 2020.

Harry, 40, said during a Court of Appeal hearing last week in London — where he's challenging the removal of his UK security — that he felt his life was “at stake.”

The Duke of Sussex served with the British Army in Afghanistan more than a decade ago.

According to the newly-released summary of a private portion of last week's court proceedings, al-Qaeda said Harry was "to be murdered” and published a document saying his “assassination would please the Muslim community."

The former royal aide who sensationally accused Meghan Markle of bullying her assistants at Kensington Palace was selected to lead Prince William's environmentalism project.

Jason Knauf was appointed as the next CEO of the Earthshot Prize by the board of trustees after founding CEO Hannah Jones announced her intent to step down from the role on Thursday.

Knauf was a trusted staffer in the Royal Household beginning in February 2015 when he served as the communications secretary for Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince Harry and Megan Markle.

During that time, Knauf allegedly witnessed the former "Suits" star "bully" her staffers to the point of reducing them to tears.

Kate Middleton, Prince William and their kids, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, are sitting out the extended family's traditional Easter festivities for the second year in a row.

King Charles, Queen Camilla and other royal family members will attend the Easter Matins Service at Windsor Castle on Sunday.

But the Prince and Princess of Wales will again celebrate the holiday at Sandringham estate, their country home in Norfolk, with their children.

Last year the family of five didn't attend the service after Princess Kate announced her cancer diagnosis that March.

In 2020, William revealed how his little ones typically celebrate the holiday: with heaps of candy.

"There will be a lot of chocolate being eaten here, don't worry!" he said while on virtual royal engagement video call at the time.

To which Princess Kate sweetly called out her husband, adding, "You keep eating it!"

King Charles, 76, and Queen Camilla, 77, visited Durham Cathedral in Durham, England, for the Maundy Service held every year on Holy Thursday, or Maundy Thursday.

For the alms-giving Easter tradition with roots dating back to 13th century England, Charles distributed Maundy money to 76 men and 76 women, referencing the royal's current age. The church where the service is held changes year to year.

The centuries-old service is carried out by the reigning king every Maundy Thursday, which marks Jesus Christ's Last Supper three days before Easter Sunday on the Christian calendar.

The couple was given nosegay bouquets in the Cathedral and then joined the procession through the Nave.

Charles gave out one white purse and one red purse, to recipients who were honored for their Christian service and ties to their communities. The white purse had exclusively-made commemorative Maundy coins, and the red purse contained a £5 coin that marks the life of Charles' grandmother, the Queen Mother.

Charles was absent from last year's service due to his cancer treatment, making Camilla the first consort to lead the gesture.

Meghan Markle just can’t get enough of the Big Apple.

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, is gearing up to make yet another trip to New York City to attend the TIME100 Summit next week.

The “Suits” alum is expected to join the “world’s most influential people” at the glitzy event, slated to take place on April 23.
