    How Prince Harry and Meghan escaped a near fatal ‘paparazzi car chase’ with a Taxi

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle narrowly escaped a harrowing encounter with paparazzi in what has been described by their spokesperson as a “near catastrophic” car chase. The incident, which evoked chilling memories for Prince Harry, unfolded on Tuesday night as the couple left an award ceremony attended by Meghan’s mother, accompanied by police officers.

    According to reports, the relentless pursuit by paparazzi began after the couple entered an SUV, triggering a high-speed chase that lasted over two hours. The dangerous chase posed a grave risk, resulting in multiple near collisions involving other motorists, pedestrians, and even two NYPD officers.

    In a daring move to evade their pursuers, the SUV eventually pulled over, and Prince Harry, Meghan, and her mother swiftly disembarked, hailing a New York taxi to make their escape. In a bid to outsmart the relentless paparazzi, the police officers took a different route from the cab, attempting to confuse their pursuers.

    Eyewitness accounts reveal that the paparazzi, traveling in a fleet of blacked-out vehicles, brazenly violated traffic laws, including driving on sidewalks, running red lights, and even driving against the flow of one-way streets.

    The incident undoubtedly triggered painful memories for Prince Harry, as it harkened back to the tragic fate that befell his mother, Princess Diana. In 1997, Princess Diana lost her life in a devastating car crash while being pursued by paparazzi in Paris. The heart-wrenching image of a young Harry, then only twelve years old, and his elder brother, fifteen-year-old Prince William, silently following their mother’s casket, remains etched in the public’s collective memory.

    The disturbing encounter with the paparazzi serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing challenges faced by Prince Harry and Meghan in navigating public life under the relentless scrutiny of the media. It highlights the need for heightened awareness and measures to protect their safety and well-being as they strive to carve out a more private existence away from the intense spotlight that follows their every move.

  • Will Archie finally get a title now that Charles is king? We’re not so sure

    When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their first child, it was decided he would be known as Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.

    Archie would have gotten the “courtesy title” of Earl of Dumbarton upon his birth, but the couple announced he was not given a title and, instead, could be given the secondary Sussex title before inheriting the dukedom.

    Following Harry and Meghan’s exit from the firm, however, and their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey, the Duchess of Sussex revealed Archie was actually not given a title.

    She told the talk show host: “They didn’t want him to be a prince or princess, not knowing what the gender would be, which would be different from protocol, and (said) that he wasn’t going to receive security.”

    She added, in a blow to the royal family: “In those months when I was pregnant… we have in tandem the conversation of, you won’t be given security, not gonna be given a title and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born.”

    Now, according to a rule established by King George V after he issued a Letters Patent in 1917: “The grandchildren of the sons of any such sovereign in the direct male line (save only the eldest living son of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales) shall have and enjoy in all occasions the style and title enjoyed by the children of dukes of these our realms.”

    This essentially means King Charles can now give prince and princess titles to both Archie and Lilibet. When – and if – that will happen, though, is unclear.

    The Sussexes are still at odds with the firm, with sources saying though they appeared to unite following the queen’s death and the proceedings that followed, “no meaningful rapprochement” has been made.

    Meanwhile, behind the scenes, there’ve been arguments over titles for Harry and Meghan’s children, according to People, with a spokesperson saying nothing of the sort will be decided while the family is in mourning; the mourning period will last one more week after the funeral.

    How the line of succession looks after the death of the Queen

    Of course, one can’t help but wonder about the likelihood of the above, with the royal website having already updated William’s title to Prince of Wales and all three of his children to Prince George of Wales, Princess Charlotte of Wales and Prince Louis of Wales.

    The Duke of Sussex’s children, now sixth and seventh in line to the throne behind their father, are still listed as Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor and Miss Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor.
