A WHITE VAN AT THE SCHOOL GATE: THE SUSSEX SECURITY ROW STOPS BEING THEORETICAL, WHILE EVERYONE ELSE FIGHTS ABOUT 1997
Two men with backpacks spent hours watching a school in England attended by Harry and Meghan's children before leaving in a rented white van; police are investigating, and the Sussexes' spokesman called it extraordinarily reckless. Weeks after critics dismissed the family's security fears as a victim narrative, the fear has a number plate. Mark Francis on what that means for RAVEC — and on how the Sussexes keep undercutting their own privacy case. Plus Charles Spencer's book tour and the one correction that cost him, Diana's 1991 tapes resurfacing, Sarah Ferguson's reported memoir, Amazon circling Invictus, and a King on dry form.
