Meghan Markle reportedly granted security review — as she broadcasts family’s UK return on social media

Meghan Markle has been reportedly granted her first government-backed security review after moving back to the UK.

Both Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, will receive an official risk assessment soon, the Telegraph reported Monday.

According to the outlet, they’ve been asked by the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (Ravec) to provide full details of their new daily routines.

Harry was reportedly informed by the Ravec chairman last week that both he and Markle would be commissioned a new risk assessment given their move back to the UK.

Hello! also reported Monday that Markle, 45, and Harry, 41, have decided to switch their children’s schools due to security concerns over the commute to the original school they chose, just two days after they started.

Contributing factors to the big decision reportedly included heavy traffic in the area and the distance between the school and where they’re living, which put “their small, private security team” under strain.

Markle previously expressed concern over the privacy of their children — Princess Lilibet, 5, and Prince Archie, 7 — going to school in the UK. In a 2022 interview with the Cut, she spoke out about paparazzi potentially taking pics of them while she picks and drops them off.

“Sorry, I have a problem with that,” she said at the time. “That doesn’t make me obsessed with privacy. That makes me a strong and good parent protecting my child.”

The couple’s daily school runs with their kids will pose the “most danger” for them after they returned to the UK without taxpayer-funded security, a friend close of theirs told the Telegraph previously.

“It is absolutely the biggest area of concern,” the insider shared.

News of the security review and school concerns comes one day after the former “Suits” actress shared an intimate video on Instagram of the family’s picture-perfect return to Harry’s home country.

The video includes footage of Lilibet riding her bike as Archie runs beside her, and Harry taking his kids out on a boat to fish.

According to royal commentator Kinsey Schofield, the decision to post intimate family moments on social media is “striking” in its “hypocrisy.”

“If privacy is genuinely the priority, the most effective strategy is simple… stop broadcasting your family life to millions of strangers,” Schofield exclusively told Page Six Sunday. “Every hyper-curated glimpse of the children, the dogs, the countryside, and their domestic routine invites more attention, more questions, and more interest in where and how they are living.”

She added, “You cannot deliberately feed that machine and then act astonished or outraged when people want to know more.”

Harry and Markle are awaiting an answer from the UK’s Home Office about whether they will receive long- term taxpayer-funded police protection now that they are residing in Europe. They were previously denied protection rights during visits to the UK.
