Like It Or Not Like It, Meghan And Harry Need Diplomatic Security

One of the problems that Queen Elizabeth and her successor, Prince Charles, are most concerned about after the departure of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle with their son to Canada, is the issue of security for the Dukes of Sussex. Also many voices were raised against meeting the couple's security expenses by voluntarily withdrawing from their real obligations.

Indeed, they are no longer royal highnesses but they are still members of the royal family. Among the dangers that surround the Sussex, not alone is the harassment that can be fierce from the paparazzi, whose persecution they claim caused the death of the Princess of Wales.

There are also terrorist threats weighing on them or some crazy fan, for or against the monarchy, might be able to give them a good scare.

Therefore, Meghan, Harry and Archie will receive the same level of diplomatic security as any other member of the royal family, "whether they are active or not," said London lawyer Mark Stephens, of the firm Howard Kennedy, to Anglo-Saxon People magazine.

If life goes on, Prince William will one day be the King of England, in which case his brother Harry and his family will need to surround themselves with even greater security.

"Whoever covers their security costs, the Canadians or the British, the government intelligence services will also be involved," explains Stephens. "If they hired a private company, they would not be aware of the intelligence services of the country, something that in this case is totally necessary to provide them with truly effective protection. Whether they like it or not, they will continue to cover these costs because the protection the Dukes of Sussex need is on the fringes of their withdrawal from royalty.”
