Security expert Richard Aitch, the director of operations for Mobius International, told Express.co.uk members of the Royal Family are most under threat when they are travelling. He explained during events and engagements buildings and locations go under stringent security checks to ensure all the people in the area are not a threat to the royals. He added, the moment royals move between buildings or travel to different locations is when the risk of threat goes up considerably.

Mr Aitch said: "It is not just the Royal Family but any principal that has a serious threat against them. “The Royal Family is most at risk during travel. "You can have a person you are protecting very secure within a building, it is a secure area because the people in there have been vetted, gone through a security process and there are security guards in there. "As soon as they leave that environment, that sterile environment, their risk to threat goes up quite considerably. DON'T MISS: Buckingham Palace warns coronavirus pandemic could halt royal events

"So when they are leaving a vehicle to go into a building that is a dangerous time because any actions from somewhere who could not gain access to the building would be waiting outside. "They could be posing as a threat directly there. "The threat to the royals is heightened here likewise when they are in a car even though that car may be armoured, in the security private sector you cannot control other traffic. "If you are protecting a royal and you are from the private sector you can't close roads, you can't be seen to be breaking the law and you can't speed.
