Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are understood to be left alarmed by the ordeal they faced at Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s school, sparking concerns about their safety.
Two paparazzi photographers were recently in the perimeter of the children’s school in an “incredibly upsetting” turn of events. There is heightened tensions for the not only the Sussexes but also other parents.
They may not have anticipated that their children would be spied on by foreign photographers rather than be studying at a safe place. According to a royal expert, even if the security bit doesn’t work out, they can simply follow in the footsteps of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Prince William and Princess Kate are also doting and protective parents to George, Charlotte and Louis. While the children have been seen in the public on occasion, there is one thing that has protected the royal children from intrusion in their personal life.
“Meghan has teased us all with multiple pictures of Archie and Lilibet in which their faces are deliberately obscured,” former correspondent Jennie Bond told The Mirror. “And that has spawned more curiosity about them — and upped the reward for any pap who can get a face-on shot.”
She added that William and Kate have adopted a better strategy as they “regularly released charming portraits of their children on special occasions”.
“We have been able to watch them grow from afar; press and public interest in them has been satisfied. And the value of any snatched photos has been negated. Perhaps the Sussexes should now follow that example.”
