Meghan Markle reportedly sparked a security alert after her personal cellphone number was leaked in a school parents’ text thread.
The Duchess of Sussex’s digits were leaked in a WhatsApp chat for school parents that she joined the night before her two children, Princess Lillibet and Prince Archie, had their first day at a UK school, The Sun reported Tuesday.
In a screenshot posted by the outlet, two moms welcome Markle, with one message reading, “Welcome to Meghan who has Archie joining tomo.” After another message reads, “Welcome!!”
Markle responded, “Hi moms! Thanks for the warm welcome ❤️ So happy to be a part of this community xx.”
The news come after Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, abruptly pulled their kids out of a UK school over security concerns just two days after classes started. Heavy traffic to and from the school to where the family is living was straining their small security team, Hello! Magazine reported Monday.
“The decision for the children to move school was taken following a discussion with the family’s security team about the practicalities of their current arrangements,” a rep for the couple told the outlet.
An insider also told the outlet that Harry, 42, and Markle, 45, had security checks completed at the school before the term, but were unable to test the school run.
“It’s a real shame, because they absolutely adored the school, the kids and their parents,” the source said.
Meanwhile, the former “Suits” star has reportedly been granted her first government-backed security review.
Both Markle and Harry will receive an official risk assessment soon, according to the Telegraph, and 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 for a new risk assessment given their move back to the UK.
