The Canadian Government has confirmed that it will soon stop providing security for the Duke and Duchess of Suss*x, Prince Harry and Meghan Markel.
According to the statement from public safety, “the assistance will cease in the coming weeks, in keeping with their change in status”
Harry and Meghan will formally step down as senior royals from 31 March, coming months after they announced they would be stepping back from royal duties and working to become financially independent.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) have been providing assistance to the couple since their arrival in Canada “intermittently since November 2019”.
The news comes just a day after the Duke of Suss*x asked delegates at a tourism conference in Edinburgh to address him simply as Harry.
