Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have a new female head of protection who has been keeping the parents-to-be safe for quite some time now. Read on to learn 5 important things about her.

Daily Mail reported about their protector but didn't name her for security reasons. She's currently with them in Australia, where they spent their Saturday at the Invictus Games down under.
