Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are the victims of a hoax anthrax scare after an envelope containing white powder was sent to the couple at their Kensington Palace home earlier this month.
“Police are investigating after a package containing a substance was delivered to St. James’s Palace” a spokesperson told the source confirming that no arrests have been made.
The letter was intercepted before reaching the couple but a full security scare was sparked over fears it could contain anthrax. The couple have been informed of the incident.
Extensive tests revealed that the powder was harmless but Scotland Yard is now said to be on high alert ahead of the royal wedding in May.
The scare will likely put Scotland Yard on high alert for the couple’s wedding at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor on May 19, where the newlyweds are due to take part in a carriage procession around the streets of Windsor.
Last September, a woman was arrested for breaking into Prince George’s school, and in October, a terror suspect allegedly encouraged ISIS extremists to attack Prince William and Kate Middleton‘s son at school, via a chilling web message.
