Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s brief visit to Vancouver cost around £34,558 ($44k) in police overtime, it has been revealed.
Canadian police have now logged the cost of their overtime during the couple’s short trip – which saw them visit both Vancouver and Whistler between February 14 and 16.
The visit came as the couple promoted Harry’s Invictus Games, which is set to take place in Vancouver and Whistler in February 2025.
The Duke of Sussex, who stepped down from royal duty back in 2020, launched the Games – which is a multi-sporting event for wounded, injured and sick armed forces and veterans – in 2014.
Whilst the Games covered £8,027 ($10,221) of the cost, taxpayers in Canada were still expected to fork out £34,558 ($44k) in overtime.
