Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been extremely busy lately. After the Duke of Sussex returned to his home in Montecito, they resumed their social work in the United States, educating kids and teenagers about the value of mental health and the risks social media can present when used improperly.
Following Meghan Markle’s acceptance of the “Women of Vision” award in New York City on May 16, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were subjected to a catastrophic persecution, as Prince Harry put it. Although the gala was successfully held, the problem started when the couple was returning to their lodging when they were cornered and pursued by countless paparazzi looking for a simple photo. The duke and duchess did not receive the backing they anticipated when the controversy was made public online; rather, they were subjected to a barrage of criticism.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle acknowledge that the incident was extremely traumatic, but they are both shocked by the lack of support from the United States and by some media’s reactions to the disastrous chase. In fact, according to New York police reports, the chase was not a big deal, and there were no collisions, injuries, or arrests as the Duke of Sussex claimed.
Many people think the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s tales are a joke or a simple trick because it would be impossible to carry out the kind of chase they describe in New York City’s streets, where it is almost certain that you cannot drive fast or perform any maneuvers due to the level of traffic chaos that prevails.
