The couple made a disturbing revelation about their experience in New York City. Prince Harry, accompanied by his wife Meghan and her mother, found themselves caught up in what they described as a harrowing car chase with paparazzi photographers.
As reported by their spokesperson, the incident took place after the couple attended an awards ceremony organized by the Ms. Foundation for Women in New York, where Meghan was recognized for her impactful work. On social media, various pictures have surfaced, showing Harry, Meghan, and her mother, Doria Ragland, inside a taxi.
In an official statement, the spokesperson remarked, "Last night, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, along with Ms. Ragland, experienced a near catastrophic car chase caused by a relentless pack of highly aggressive paparazzi."
The pursuit persisted for over two hours, resulting in several close calls involving other motorists, pedestrians, and even two NYPD (New York Police Department) officers.
Harry and Meghan chose to step down from their royal duties in 2020 and relocated to the United States, largely influenced by the relentless media scrutiny they faced.
The prince has been vocal for years about his frustration with media intrusion, which he holds responsible for the tragic death of his mother, Princess Diana. She lost her life in a car accident while fleeing from pursuing paparazzi in Paris.
