Prince Harry spokesman slams 'reckless' paparazzi tactics at kids' school
It was "concerning" that "certain European paparazzi appear unwilling to respect the privacy of children at school," the spokesperson added.
Prince Harry and his wife Meghan have condemned the behavior of international photographers who were seen outside their children's school. According to a spokesperson, the photographers were "walking the perimeter of the school" and "stopping to look into the grounds", sparking a security scare. The spokesperson described their actions as "extraordinarily reckless" and an "unacceptable intrusion" into the privacy of children.
The incident occurred at the school of Prince Harry's children, Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five, in the UK. The family recently moved back to Britain after six years in the US. The spokesperson emphasized that there is a "world of difference" between legitimate media activity and the actions of these photographers, who were reportedly carrying backpacks and using a white van.
The photographers' actions were described as "an extraordinary lack of judgment" by the spokesperson, particularly given a recent incident at RAF Fairford. The incident has been reported to police, although they have not yet commented. The school's location and the Sussexes' residence have not been publicly disclosed.
