Harry and Meghan: Boris Johnson 'confident' over future role
Prime Minister Boris Johnson says he is "absolutely confident" the Royal Family is going to "sort out" a future role for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Harry and Meghan want to "step back" from being full-time working royals.
Johnson told BBC Breakfast: "I think they'll sort it out all the easier without any commentary from me."
It came as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said further talks were needed over who pays for Prince Harry and Meghan's security.
Trudeau said the funding and shape of the couple's plans to relocate to North America are to be discussed.
The Queen has agreed a "period of transition" in which Prince Harry and Meghan will be in Canada and the UK.
She said she was "entirely supportive" of their desire for a new role but "would have preferred" them to remain full-time working royals.
In a statement following talks at Sandringham, the Queen's residence in Norfolk, on Monday involving senior royals, the Queen said she expected final decisions to be made in the coming days.
The Queen, the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry attended the summit. Meghan - who is in Canada - did not participate, according to the Daily Mail and Hello! magazine.
