Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may be granted 'VIP status' by Dutch police
The Duke of Sussex Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle cannot have private armed security guards as they visit Holland this week.
The royal couple have been informed of the move as they are expected to attend the opening ceremony of the Invictus Games on Saturday, April 16.
Dutch officials have confirmed Meghan and Harry's personal security guards cannot be armed during their trip to Holland.
"No, in the Netherlands only government officials (police, military personnel etc.) are allowed to carry weapons", said police spokeswoman Anna Sofia Posthumus, asking whether the royal couple's personal guards are allowed to carry weapons.
However, according to reports, Meghan and Harry may be granted 'VIP status' by the Dutch police.
