Princess Diana, died in a car crash in Paris in 1997 after a high-speed chase by paparazzi and now Prince Harry and Meghan Markle know first hand what that experience was like after the couple was pursued for two hours by aggressive paparazzi in New York. Meghan and Harry were in town for her to receive an award. They left the venue in an SUV with a police escort, but that didn’t stop the paps.

There were numerous photographers that made their transport challenging. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived at their destination and there were no reported collisions, summonses, injuries, or arrests in regard.”
