Titles or not, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry won't be losing this royal perk.
reports that Mark Stephens, who works with London law firm Howard Kennedy, insists that the Sussexes will continue to have diplomatic protection, "whether or not they are active members" of the family."If you take the Dutch royal family for example, where a number of them work — the King is an airline pilot — they still have diplomatic immunity because of their status as a member of the royal family, Stephens explained.
"If they're covered by either the Canadian or British security services, they will also have the intelligence attached which comes with that," Stephens added. "If you employ a private security firm, they won’t have the intelligence which is necessary to provide effective close protection." And as for who would pay for it, Stephens doesn't think anything will change, meaning British taxpayers would be picking up the tab for security.
"We pay for the security of ex-politicians and government ministers who have two days in the job, so it is perfectly reasonable for a lifelong member of the royal family to have security,” he added. "And I think the [U.K.] government will feel like that."
