Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s security cost responsibility remains a hotly debated topic. As the couple steps back from royal life and move to Canada questions remain on whether the Canadian people or British will pay for the couple’s security. ITV GMB panel guest Andrew Pierce insisted the Disney company should foot the bill for Meghan and Harry in reference to the footage of Prince Harry networking at the Lion King Premier last year.
ITV Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan highlighted that Prince Harry stepped immediately into a car moments after exiting a plane after journeying to Canada.
Susanna Reid responded: “Yes, well most of us aren’t of the same profile as Prince Harry and therefore there are security issues.”
Mr Pierce burst out: “Oh come on, you can’t have it both ways and Harry wants it both ways and so does Meghan.”
Ms Reid continued: “I think we should still pay for it, he is still a member of the Royal Family.

“I don’t know why you are arguing we should just abandon him.”
Ms Pierce replied: “We’re not abandoning him.
“We are saying, get Disney to pay for your security.
“He has abandoned us.”
“So what he is a member of the Royal Family.”
GMB host Piers Morgan concluded by saying: “The point is, Harry and Meghan made a big thing about wanting to be financially independent.
“That is not financial independence.
“That is privilege in real-time.”
