Later, police reportedly identified one of them from a European press agency. After this incident, the Sussexes’ spokesperson released a statement, criticizing the photographers.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s rep calls paparazzi outside kids’ school ‘unacceptable’ — report
Paparazzi were reportedly spotted on the perimeter of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s kids’ school. According to PEOPLE, two young men were seen around the premises. The Sussexes’ private security and school staff allegedly noticed the two men carrying backpacks. They were walking around while pausing at different points.
It was further reported that the duo initially wandered around separately before joining forces. They returned to a white van, which police later linked to an international photographer from a European publication.
Meanwhile, following the incident, Markle and Harry’s rep released a statement, slamming the paps. “The decision by photographers to conduct themselves in this way around a school is extraordinarily reckless.” Furthermore, it accused the “certain” European paparazzi of not respecting the privacy of the school children.
“Whatever photographs they may have been seeking, this was not only an unacceptable intrusion into the privacy of children. It was an irresponsible and ill-considered way to conduct themselves in the vicinity of a school,” the statement concluded.
Earlier, Harry and Markle withdrew Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s names from their previous school within two days into the term. The reason was said to be security concerns and logistical challenges. Reportedly, heavy traffic made it difficult for their vehicles to stay together in a convoy while driving to that school. It seemed to have worried the parents about their kids’ safety. Therefore, the little prince and princess were moved to a new school within a week.
