Britain’s Prince Harry, his wife Meghan and her mother were involved in a “near catastrophic car chase” involving paparazzi photographers, the couple’s spokesperson has told Reuters news agency.
The incident is said to have happened on Tuesday evening after the couple left an awards ceremony in New York.
The spokesperson says the pursuit by “a ring of highly aggressive paparazzi” lasted more than two hours, and “resulted in multiple near collisions” with other drivers, pedestrians and two police officers.
There are no reports of any injuries to the Harry, Meghan, or her mother Doria Ragland.
Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, encouraged women to find inspiration to fight for equity as she accepted the Ms. Foundation Women of Vision Award Tuesday night.
“It’s never too late to start,” Meghan said at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in Manhattan. “You can be the visionary of your own life… There is still so much work to be done.”
