A “potentially” disastrous chase that “almost” resulted in a collision between cars, pedestrians, and two police officers. Meghan and Harry’s story of what happened Tuesday night in New York this is a terrible deja vu. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have announced that two hours followed by some paparazzi especially aggressive and “bump” into the tragic car accident. Lots of reports of closeness to the couple, but also lots of skepticism from those who linger on the terms “potentially/almost/affected” and see it all communication strategy for creating empathy continuing to compare himself to what happened to mother Diana on that tragic August 31st at the Tunnel de l’Alma in Paris.

Press, media, paparazzi: Harry and Meghan’s crusade against photographers’ painful obsession with them was completely gutted in a Netflix documentary. Harry and Meganin which they are wasted parallels with mother Diana and her tragic fate associated with the obsession of photographers. The Dukes of Sussex have never hidden their fear for their safety and the safety of their children Archie and Lilibet, as well as the fear that history could repeat itself.
Here it is Tuesday night in New York after attending the Ms Foundation Women of Vision Awardswhere Meghan was honored by the legendary feminist Gloria Stein, their worst nightmares came true. “Last night the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Mrs Ragland (Meghan’s mother ed.) were involved in a near-disastrous car chase at the hands of a group of very aggressive paparazzi,” Harry and Meghan’s spokesperson said in a note released to Reuters, “This relentless chase, which lasted over two hours, resulted in numerous confrontations. involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians and two NYPD officers.”
Harry, Meghan and her mother Doria Ragland had just left the Ziegfield Theater when a dozen paparazzi started chasing the SUV the three got into. Photographers on cars, motorcycles and scooters getting on the sidewalks and running red lights regardless of prohibited directions, as well as police attempts to stop them: such is the scenario told by the Sussexes. In the vain hope of losing their pursuers, the three would abandon their car to get a taxi, filming everything on their cell phones. “Interest in public figures should never threaten anyone’s safety,” always explains the representative of the couple, who lost the right to escort when, after the transatlantic transfer, they ceased to be working royals. “I was close to understanding what happened the night my mother died,” Prince Harry said.shocked by the tragedy.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams, specifying that “there were no injuries, arrests or clashes”, condemned the chase as “irresponsible”. although he doesn’t think it could last two hours. “The press, the paparazzi want to get the right photo, but everyone’s safety has to come first,” he said. “I find it hard to believe that it lasted two hours, but even a ten-minute chase would be extremely dangerous in a city like New York. We have a lot of traffic jams, a lot of traffic jams, a lot of people use our streets.”
Buckingham Palace is silent and even the English press seems reluctant to cover this news, except to express doubts and bewilderments about history, time and reconstruction, hinting that Meghan and Harry made things worse for celebrities to be talked about after the royal family eclipsed them at the coronation. Never complain, never explain?
