What the Sussexes Say Happened
Whatever commenters made of the situation, the explanation provided by the Sussexes was specific: The school itself was not the reason Archie and Lilibet left.
After only two days, a school the children reportedly “absolutely adored” was no longer workable because the family’s security team determined that the daily journey could not be made operationally secure under the existing arrangements.

Archie and Lilibet are now preparing to start again at another school nearby — while Meghan’s new government-backed security review puts the wider question of the Sussex family’s protection in Britain firmly back in focus. For Harry and Meghan, the latest incident only underscores why those arrangements remain important as their children settle into life in the U.K.
The two men were ultimately identified as photographers, but the couple’s objection centered on how they conducted themselves around a place where children were going about their day. Whatever photographs they may have been seeking, Harry and Meghan made clear that their children’s privacy remains a boundary they expect to be respected.
