H&M Again- Change Of Schools.

So H&M have changed the childrens school, after only a few days there.

Suddenly, the school run has become a huge security risk.

Did they not give any thought to this before enrolling them there? Practice runs at either end of the day, to assess the risks? šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

Hardly the best start for two little children, moving continents, homes and schools in a matter of days.

Yet another reason for the ā€˜security’ issue to raise its head.

The manipulations are pretty obvious.

Publicity seeking, dare I suggest?

Allsorts Tue 15-Sept-26 07:55:06

Predictable! Do it a couple of times and show grandpa how much they need security. Saves the school any further drama however.

Because they werent getting what they wanted at the school, more like.
Personally I think the school has dodged a bullet.

I think you're right!

They are so obvious aren’t they? Don’t want to be working royals but need all the same attention.

It's all performative to increase the level of emotional blackmail to get state funded security and they're using their children to get what they want, which is to have the level of security they're no longer entitled too.

Despicable behaviour.

If I were a parent at the first school I would be very relieved..

Me too utbb!

Harry is still the Kings son, his children are the Kings grandchildren.

They should have protection.

Poor children.
Two parents who have no concern for how disruptive this will be for their offspring; starting school in a new country then suddenly being removed at a moments notice and presumably starting afresh elsewhere.

Smileless2012 Tue 15-Sept-26 08:53:05

They have protection, their parents pay for security and knew there wouldn't be state funded security when they decided to return.

Harry lost a court case for state funded security in May 2025 and said it would never be safe for him to bring his family back to the UK, so why did he?

That’s what I was thinking,too. Is the young girl old enough for school, I thought she was only about 3 ? Time flies.

MarieElla Tue 15-Sept-26 08:57:58

They obviously didn't do their research properly.
It was the distance that was the problem.
They really are problematic.
Why, oh why set up home in a country where you claim caused you so much distress??
Immature parenting.

Prince Harry does pay for Private Security for him and his family.

What he cannot do is pay for armed security, or have access to information that the U.K. security services have regarding current threat levels.

His security does not have the ability to keep with the vehicle carrying Harry and/or his children in heavy traffic flow which U.K. security services and police have.

Prince Harry is fifth inline to the throne and his children are sixth and seventh, they can never be just ordinary citizens

My thoughts on whether or not I agree with their choices over the last few years are irrelevant, as they have no relevance on the line of succession.

eazybee Tue 15-Sept-26 09:14:38

But they arejust ordinary citizens because their parents are not working royals, through their own choice.

Another of these nasty, vicious, tired threads!

AGAA4 Tue 15-Sept-26 09:16:01

There is a security review happening to assess whether tax payer funded security can be given.
I'm not sure why they have returned to the UK but I would hate for anything to happen to the two children.

fancythat Tue 15-Sept-26 09:18:10

As I said on the other thread, I think they will home educate.

And another step towrds becoming reclusive, some time hence.

Smileless2012 Tue 15-Sept-26 09:18:53

If position on the line of succession were an issue GrannyGravy then presumably security would be a given but the level of security he wants is for working royals which
they're not.

He knew there would be no armed security so why on earth did they come back?

sodapop Tue 15-Sept-26 09:19:10

Whatever we think about the behaviour of H & M the fact remains that they are the direct family of the King and this places them at risk. It does feel a bit like the children are being used as pawns in this drama.

Another of these nasty, vicious, tired threads!

As long as the media seems to have almost an obsession with them, threads will not stop. Ever.

[They dont help themselves either. The endless non photos for example. To name but 100 things].

There’ll be a flurry of interest in the school’s second hand uniform shop! šŸ˜‚

ixion Tue 15-Sept-26 09:21:16

How does the Wales family manage the school run below the radar?
Fuss free.
I thought both parents drove their children to school..

How do they cope with the traffic each morning?

MarieElla Tue 15-Sept-26 09:21:28

He came back to try and force the security issue.
To cause problems for his extended family.
To try and become significant by being in his hone country.
