Parents at Harry and Meghan's kids' school given warning

Parents at the Sussex children’s school were told to photograph only their own children after Meghan’s phone number was shared in a WhatsApp group.

  • Schools in the area have issued new guidance to parents stressing "the importance of only taking photos of your own children." This directive follows the enrollment of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, children of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, at a local institution.
  • Last week, the couple moved their children to a new school closer to their temporary home, citing security fears. They previously withdrew Archie and Lilibet from another school after a 30-minute commute stretched to an hour during rush hour.
  • Security concerns intensified earlier this month after the Duchess of Sussex's phone number was shared from a parents' WhatsApp chat. Meghan had been added to a group named "Year 3" to coordinate school logistics shortly before the incident.
  • Some parents questioned the notices' timing, with one complaining to The Mirror that the rules feel like "complete overkill." They argued boundaries around photographing children are already well-understood.
  • The family recently returned to the UK after six years in the United States and were reportedly granted a formal government security review. Similar photography reminders were sent to neighboring schools that play sports against the children's new school.
