In today’s special edition of The Royal T, as both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are awaiting a review into their individual security status to determine whether they are entitled to receive taxpayer-funded security, Camilla Tominey and Victoria Ward speak to Paul Lewis -- a close protection expert who has run security operations for royal and high net-worth individuals for more than 20 years.

He explains the logistics and eye-watering cost of the security Prince Harry and Meghan would need as both private citizens and high-profile members of the Royal family.

Paul reveals why the Sussexes’ full security detail could cost up to £12m in the UK, why social media has exacerbated modern security risks and why private teams without armed authority struggle to counter these threats, compared to state-level intelligence resources.
