How Prince Harry and Meghan escaped a near fatal ‘paparazzi car chase’ with a Taxi

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle narrowly escaped a harrowing encounter with paparazzi in what has been described by their spokesperson as a “near catastrophic” car chase. The incident, which evoked chilling memories for Prince Harry, unfolded on Tuesday night as the couple left an award ceremony attended by Meghan’s mother, accompanied by police officers.

According to reports, the relentless pursuit by paparazzi began after the couple entered an SUV, triggering a high-speed chase that lasted over two hours. The dangerous chase posed a grave risk, resulting in multiple near collisions involving other motorists, pedestrians, and even two NYPD officers.

In a daring move to evade their pursuers, the SUV eventually pulled over, and Prince Harry, Meghan, and her mother swiftly disembarked, hailing a New York taxi to make their escape. In a bid to outsmart the relentless paparazzi, the police officers took a different route from the cab, attempting to confuse their pursuers.

Eyewitness accounts reveal that the paparazzi, traveling in a fleet of blacked-out vehicles, brazenly violated traffic laws, including driving on sidewalks, running red lights, and even driving against the flow of one-way streets.

The incident undoubtedly triggered painful memories for Prince Harry, as it harkened back to the tragic fate that befell his mother, Princess Diana. In 1997, Princess Diana lost her life in a devastating car crash while being pursued by paparazzi in Paris. The heart-wrenching image of a young Harry, then only twelve years old, and his elder brother, fifteen-year-old Prince William, silently following their mother’s casket, remains etched in the public’s collective memory.

The disturbing encounter with the paparazzi serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing challenges faced by Prince Harry and Meghan in navigating public life under the relentless scrutiny of the media. It highlights the need for heightened awareness and measures to protect their safety and well-being as they strive to carve out a more private existence away from the intense spotlight that follows their every move.
