Prince Harry and Meghan Markle blasted over ‘ridiculous’ security decision amid bitter feud
Royal author Angela Levin has hit out at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to visit Colombia during a fiery rant on GB News.
Harry, 39, has said he will not bring Meghan back to his home country without state-funded personal security because he fears a “knife or acid attack
Levin questioned how he can square this logic with a trip to Colombia, where the UK Foreign Office currently “advises against all but essential travel to parts” of the South American country.
It is dangerous there [Colombia] at the moment”, she said.
There is a lot of people being taken away and money being demanded for them to be returned.
“It is really ridiculous and it conforms to my long term suggestion that they tried to manipulate the King.
To have three court cases on the Home Office and saying security is why he won’t bring his wife and children when really it’s a nonsense.
“He would be well looked after with good protection, but not the very top of the tree which is just for Camilla, Charles, William and Catherine.”
The country’s vice president, Francia Marquez, invited the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to the country and they are expected to arrive later in the year.
Marquez, a lawyer and human rights and environmental activist said in a statement: “During their trip, the duke and duchess will join me in visiting Bogota, as well as the Caribbean and Pacific regions of Cartagena and Cali.
In these vibrant locations, they will have the exceptional opportunity to engage with leaders, youth and women who embody the aspirations and voices of Colombians committed to progress.
“In addition to these meaningful interactions, the duke and duchess will experience the rich heritage of Colombia.”
The Sussexes’ trip to Colombia will be their second official tour of the year after they visited Nigeria in May taking part in a range of activities over three days.
Harry met injured service personnel and Meghan co-hosted a Women in Leadership event with Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the director-general of the World Trade Organisation.
