Meghan's phone number leaked from school group after move to UK

Prince Harry and Meghan's personal phone number showed up online. This happened when her message appeared in a parents' WhatsApp group at their children's new school in the Cotswolds.
The couple had pulled Prince Archie, seven, and Princess Lilibet, five, from their first school after only two days. They did this because of security concerns during rush-hour traffic on the commute.
Harry and Meghan have now enrolled the children at another school. This school is closer to their home.
Harry and Meghan joined the new school's WhatsApp groups. These incidents come as Prince Harry works to reinstate his taxpayer-funded police protection detail.
