Prince Harry and Meghan condemn what they describe as “extraordinarily reckless” behavior by two photographers seen near the school of their children, Archie and Lilibet, in the UK. Multiple outlets report the men were spotted around the perimeter of the school, peering into the grounds and monitoring children as they went about the school day.
The reports say the incident was noticed by private security and school staff. The photographers were described as carrying backpacks and being connected to an international or European press operation, and a white van was later associated with the photographers after they were seen at points around the school. A spokesman for the Sussexes says there is a difference between legitimate media activity and photographers walking around a school, and argues their behavior posed an unacceptable intrusion into children’s privacy.
Some coverage also provides broader context around the family’s return to the UK and their efforts to manage security and privacy. Outlets reference earlier school changes and security concerns, as well as prior disputes involving paparazzi attention. Across the articles, the central focus remains on the Sussexes’ criticism and the alleged behavior by the photographers near the children’s school.
