Speaking to Winfrey, Harry recounted, "While we were in Canada, in someone else’s house, I then got told, short notice, that security was going to be removed. At this point, everyone knew, thanks to the Daily Mail, our exact location.” He further added, "So suddenly it dawned on me, ‘Hang on, the borders could be closed, we’re going to have our security removed, who knows how long lockdown is going to be, the world knows where we are, it’s not safe, it’s not secure, we probably need to get out of here."

Harry revealed that the reasoning behind leaving them defenseless was a 'change of status' as they were not active members of the Royal family.
