The royal self-exilers pondered moving to New Zealand, they’ve told Oprah Winfrey. We say: welcome, Hazzer and Megs.
Over recent years reasons cited for moving from the UK or US to Aotearoa are many. The election of George W Bush. Brexit. The election of Donald Trump. To that list can now be added: being made to feel like utter shit by the royal family and the tabloid press.

Well here we go again... to it seem easy tp me that even though they test negative they still need to be isolating like every one else that comes into the country that has been in another country... Border staff are the weakest link and they themselve need to be isolating and rotating their staff, not just relying on testing.
Rotate the staff so they can get time with family...
