March has been an extremely busy month for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Just a few days ago, People confirmed that the former royal partner had unexpectedly moved to Los Angeles and shortly after it was announced that the actress was back in Hollywood with a Disney project in which he will lend his voice.

As if that were not enough this Tuesday their stage within the British monarchy will officially come to an end and now the couple is preparing to assume their civilian life. But do not think for a moment that the United States will cover any expenses to shield the Dukes of Sussex in their new residence, sir.

This Sunday President Donald Trump made it very clear and without a doubt that "although he is a great admirer of Queen Elizabeth and the United Kingdom … the United States will not pay for his protection [and] security," according to a published tweet. around noon on your official account. "They must pay!"

The dukes' response was not long in coming. "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have no plans to ask the United States government for resources for their safety," exclaimed a representative of the couple in remarks reproduced by PageSix. "Arrangements have already been made to provide them with private security."

Harry and Meghan in one of their last public appearances as royals in London:

It stands to reason that your safety issue is a sensitive one. On the one hand there are reports that it would amount to a million dollars annually, an amount that formerly was covered by the citizens of Great Britain. But now that the couple have relinquished their royal duties and have decided to self-finance their expenses, that responsibility has fallen on Harry's father, Prince Charles, 71, who has spent the past few days confined in a Scottish castle to recover. of the coronavirus that he contracted.

On the other hand, there is the issue of low chemistry, so to speak, that exists between the 45th President and the Dukes. Meghan expressed concern about Trump's election even before she occupied the White House Oval Office. And Harry was recently caught in a phone prank by Russian hackers saying Trump "had blood on his hands."

On top of that, Harry is a great friend of former President Barack Obama, who for years Trump questioned regarding the legitimacy of his citizenship and Meghan has the full support of Oprah Winfrey, friend of the soul of former first lady Michelle Obama. Phew!
