Prince Harry and Meghan's two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, will move to a new school in the United Kingdom after leaving their previous school due to security concerns.

“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 spokesperson for Harry and Meghan said in a statement Monday.

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