Prince Harry is “worried” about Meghan Markle, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet amid “security risks”, according to former royal butler Paul Burrell.
Paul Burrell – who worked for the late Princess Diana for 10 years before her death in 1997 – pointed to an assassination attempt on Harry’s father in 1994 as an example of the threats royals face.
As reported by GB News, Mr Burrell said: “Being a member of the Royal Family is a threat. The threat is huge, there was an assassination attempt on the then Prince Charles in 1994 in Australia which just highlights the risk.
“I think Harry is more worried about his wife and his kids and the risk of kidnapping plots, to be honest, and also the more he does in the public as a celebrity the more he could become a target.
“So of course, he is going to take his security more seriously and this is very important to him.”
Speaking of being a member of the Royal Family, he added: “Security is a big part of the royal household.
“They offer security detail the minute they become engaged to a member of the Royal Family and I witnessed that when Catherine became engaged.”
The comments come as Harry is set to enter a fresh battle about his security fears in the UK – with the 40-year-old said to want his children to be able to make memories in his home country.

Unlike his younger sister, Archie was born in the UK – but moved to America with his parents when he was less than a year-old.
Harry is set to appeal a High Court ruling that upheld the Home Office’s decision to reduce his security protection in the UK following his departure from royal duties in 2020.
The Duke of Sussex – who has made multiple trips to the UK since stepping down from royal duties – no longer receives the same level of police protection automatically granted to the Royal Family.
