Harry and Meghan's bodyguards forced to pick up coffee and groceries for the royals: 'We feel like skivvies'
Scotland Yard officers who have been guarding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle said that they are being treated like 'skivvies' and are being forced to do 'menial tasks' such as picking up takeaways and groceries.
The highly trained protection officers have also allegedly been spotted buying food from an organic deli which is supposed to be one of Meghan's favorites. They have also been seen picking up coffees from a popular coffee chain named Tim Hortons. As reported by The Sun, a royal source shared, "While the guys are happy to be out there doing the jobs, there is a feeling they are carrying out menial tasks, like picking up takeaways and groceries."
"They are close protection officers - and should be sticking solely to close protection rather than running errands. It is dangerous for one thing because if something were to happen it would not be good if one of them was away running an errand or picking up coffee," the source continued.
A local source also shared that the guards have a 'fleet of cars' and are big burly men who seem to be British making them stand out and easily spottable. An insider had earlier told Mail Online that the pair have British and Canadian security officers at their mansion. A team of 15 guards had been flown down to protect and guard the couple and their 9-month-old baby Archie post stepping down as senior working members of the royal family.
The news also follows reports of Kim Kardashian's endorsement company Sheeraz Inc. claiming to be taking offers for the couple which the pair have flatly denied. A post from the company reads, "Sheeraz Inc. is now taking appearance and endorsement requests for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Sheeraz Inc. clients from the Middle East, India, US, and Asia can send us official offers and we will take them directly to their representatives."
However, the claims made by Sheeraz have been denied by a source representing the couple.
