Will the 6p not get anymore security updates moving forward?

I just read an article that stated that the 6p will no longer be getting regular security updates since the Pixel has been released. Does anyone know if this is fact or will the 6p still continue to be supported for another year? Such a strong device for Google to out the 6p. If this is true then I now wonder if I should have gotten the Pixel. Twice the price though. Thanks for any insight to this.
