Meghan and Harry left an event in New York City on Tuesday night and experienced quite a scare.
The couple claims to have been chased by aggressive paparazzi for two hours and is very upset about the situation. According to their security team, about 12 cars, scooters, and bicycles were chasing them around town. Some were even running red lights.
The New York Police Department called the incident “controlled.” Despite the couple’s dramatic claims, there were no accidents, injuries or arrests, and the chase did not last two hours.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex reportedly avoided the paparazzi all evening and entered the event through secret doors.
According to the New York Post, the couple’s security guards were reportedly defiant toward photographers. In addition, they acted mockingly from the beginning of the evening, which did not help their case.
The photographers also claimed that the security guards’ cars were driven unsafely. They wanted to avoid the paparazzi knowing where the couple was sleeping in the city…
They reportedly drove in a circle for about an hour in a neighbourhood near Central Park, and the couple even got into a cab to try to mix it up. The couple finally exited the cab and decided to walk to their destination. They reportedly arrived home around midnight.
Several journalists and celebrities commented on the situation, saying that a 2-hour chase in New York City is impossible and that the couple acted severely.
