Prince Harry and Meghan move children to new school over security concerns

LONDON — In a recent development, Prince Harry and Meghan have transferred their children to a different school due to security concerns, according to a spokesperson on Tuesday. This move occurred just weeks after the family returned to the U.K. to begin anew, as reported by British media. Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, had just begun the academic year in England after relocating from California in late August.

The spokesperson disclosed that the decision to change schools was made after discussions with the family's security team regarding the practicalities of their existing situation. Among the concerns raised were the length of the school journey and the significant traffic on the route. The family is presently residing at a private, non-royal residence outside of London.

The spokesperson emphasized that this decision should not be viewed as a judgment on the school or the high standard of care the children have received there. The news came after reports that Harry and Meghan were awaiting a fresh risk assessment from the government committee that reviews such matters.
