Jobson reveals the story behind a photographer capturing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in Cape Town

In the controversial clip, Netflix has shown a photographer clicking Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and Archie from Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s home in 2019 in Cape Town. Speaking about the particular incident, Robert Jobson claimed that three royal photographers were accredited to click the Duke and Duchess during the tour. It is a royal protocol to have certain journalists follow the royals during official tours. He further added that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were aware of being surrounded by three paparazzi, and thus there was no breach of privacy.

“This photograph used by Netflix and Harry and Meghan to suggest intrusion by the press is a complete travesty. It was taken from an accredited pool. Only 3 people were in the accredited position. H & M agreed to the position,” Jobson said via his official Twitter handle. 

Meanwhile, Jobson also rubbished the claims of the photographs being a set-up by the Palace. When a Twitter user questioned the possibility of the royal couple not being aware of the presence of royal photographers, Robert Jobson revealed that it is just a misinterpretation of truth as the Sussexes were on an official visit.
