LIVE – Updated at 20:59Prince Harry, his wife Meghan Markle and her mother were involved in a “near catastrophic car chase” involving the paparazzi that lasted for more than two hours, a spokesperson for the Duke of Sussex said on Wednesday.
It occurred after the couple had attended an awards ceremony held in New York by the Ms. Foundation for Women, where Meghan was honoured for her work. “Last night, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Ms Ragland were involved in a near catastrophic car chase at the hands of a ring of highly aggressive paparazzi,” the spokesperson said in a statement. “This relentless pursuit, lasting over two hours, resulted in multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians and two NYPD (New York Police Department) officers. ”The New York Police Department (NYPD) confirmed that “numerous photographers” made the couple’s transport “challenging”, but said there were no collisions, injuries or arrests.
Buckingham Palace told The Independent that it would not be commenting on the incident. Harry has long spoken out about his anger about press intrusion which he blames for the death of his mother Princess Diana, who was killed when her limousine crashed as it sped away from chasing paparazzi in Paris.
Actress Mia Farrow has said there should be rules to govern the paparazzi’s behaviour after they allegedly chased after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
