One of the Duchess of Sussex's security guards allegedly had to swat away a drone that flew over her mansion, before she and the Duke and Sussex moved into their current home. The drone incident occurred in 2020, when Meghan and Harry were still living in Los Angeles, in a house owned by movie producer Tyler Perry. They now reside at an £11 million home in Montecito.
Mark Karloff, a veteran LA-based photographer, has said that one paparazzo was caught flying a drone just above the roof of Meghan and Harry's home, and was condemned widely for the alleged illegality, the Daily Star reports. Mr Karloff, who has been taking photographs of celebrities for 14 years, told the Daily Star that there could have been a 'big problem'.
He said: "The few photographers that have drones, we know who each other are, so we kind of chat about who did what and the days we did it. We realised that it was another guy, process of elimination I guess.
