Royal Family News: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Deny Car Chase Was A PR Stunt
Were Harry and Meghan really chased by the paparazzi? That’s what everyone wants to know, seeing how there’s no evidence of it ever happening.
Plus, a lot of people have pointed out that there’s also no videos posted on social media of any kind of chase happening in New York City on that same night. Yet, the Sussexes are adamant that it happened and are denying that they made up the story on their end. Their critics, of course, beg to differ.
Harry and Meghan’s publicist, Ashley Hansen, released a statement to Page Six that said, “Respectfully, considering the duke’s family history, one would have to think nothing of the couple or anybody associated with them to believe this was any sort of PR stunt. Quite frankly, I think that’s abhorrent.”

So far Harry and Meghan themselves have not made any additional comments about the matter. Now, whether or not the Sussexes get chased by the paparazzi again remains to be seen but for now it looks like they are going to lay low and stay away from red carpet events for some time. Watch this space.
