Security fears for Prince Harry raised to 'at risk' after Trump assassination attempt
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry could now be "at risk", claims a royal expert.
Security fears have reportedly escalated for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle following Donald Trump's recent assassination attempt.
The FBI have revealed that the man who attempted to assassinate Donald Trump in America on July 13 also researched a member of the Royal Family prior to carrying out the shock shooting.
A week on from the shooting, one royal expert has now suggested that Meghan and Harry could be seen as "at risk".
Discussing the "countless occasions" that individuals have breached Buckingham Palace's security, with one person even making it to the late Queen's bedroom, royal expert Jennie Bond claims that Harry is a "more obvious target" due to his military past.
Speaking to OK!, Ms Bond said: "Security threats are a fact of life for the Royal Family and Prince Harry is an even more obvious target because of his military record. Plus, the fact that he has written about the number of Taliban fighters he has killed in action.

"It obviously means that they have to earn a lot of money, but they are not alone in facing these security threats. Countless A-list celebrities have to employ bodyguards, such is the sad state of society these days."
Harry experienced a setback this year in his ongoing legal fight over police protection in the UK, after his initial appeal against a High Court ruling was dismissed.
The Duke of Sussex, who has previously discussed his fears over security in the UK, lost his appeal against a decision made in early 2020 by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (RAVEC) to withdraw his publicly-funded protection during his visits to the UK.
