Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have returned to Britain with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, following six years of residence in the United States. The family's arrival this afternoon has reignited discussions regarding security arrangements and the potential for taxpayer funding.
Sources indicate that the family did not receive official police protection upon their arrival. This absence of immediate security has fueled ongoing questions about whether British taxpayers will be expected to cover the costs for the couple and their children.
The situation has prompted a poll by The Morning Poll, asking the public whether they believe British taxpayers should fund the security for the Duke and Duchess. The results of this poll are expected to be published in the Morning Mail newsletter.
The couple relocated to the U.S. in 2020, stepping back from their roles as senior members of the British royal family. Since then, issues surrounding their personal security and the associated costs have been a recurring subject of public and media attention.
