Harry, 42, and Meghan, 45, are not expected to spend Christmas with the royal family, including Harry’s father, King Charles III, per the reports, despite their return to the U.K. in August.

“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 Hello! in a statement last month. “The parents remain extremely grateful to all the teachers and staff for the love, care and effort they have shown their family.”
“This decision should in no way be interpreted as a reflection on the school or the exceptional care the children have received there,” the statement continued.

“There is a world of difference between legitimate media activity and photographers walking the perimeter of a school, stopping to look into the grounds and monitoring children as they go about their day,” a spokesperson for the couple told Us, adding that it was “concerning” how paparazzi seemed “unwilling to respect the privacy of children at school.”
The rep continued, “To behave in this manner in these particular circumstances, and so soon after the incident at RAF Fairford, demonstrates an extraordinary lack of judgment. Whatever photographs they may have been seeking, this was not only an unacceptable intrusion into the privacy of children; it was an irresponsible and ill-considered way to conduct themselves in the vicinity of a school.”
