London, UK – The children of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have started at a new school in the UK after a privacy scare, and the royal couple is reportedly causing a stir among their fellow parents.
After Meghan's phone number was leaked in a parents' WhatsApp group, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet had to change schools.
Per The Mirror, their new school has issued a warning to parents with guidelines on behavior on campus.
The notice also reminded them not to take unauthorized photos of students.
Parents of children who play sports at nearby schools and compete against the Sussex kids are said to have received a letter emphasizing the "importance" of only photographing their own children.
A parent soon complained, expressing confusion over the new rules: "It can't be a coincidence that these notices are going out now just after Harry and Meghan have moved their children into the local area."
Parents call Harry and Meghan's request "complete overkill"
Another person called the measures "complete overkill," saying, "Everyone knows the boundaries, and could you imagine the uproar from other parents if someone was discovered purposely taking pictures of children that weren't theirs.
"I hope this isn't a sign of things to come because it's totally unnecessary."
The first day of school for the siblings was also said to have caused a stir. According to a parent, two SUVs were seen near the school.
Harry and Meghan, their children, and the security team then showed up at the entrance.
The person also said that everyone at the school is "very down to earth and normal," adding, "We all help each other and help out whenever we can with school events. We would hope all new parents want to get involved and immerse themselves in school life and the wider community."
A few weeks ago, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex unexpectedly announced that after roughly six years in the US, they were planning to move back to the UK – Harry's home country.
