The Duke and Duchess of Sussex declined to attend the annual Gracie Awards ceremony for fear of repeated harassment by the paparazzi. These release reports daily mail refer to an insider.
Meghan Markle won the Best Entertainment Podcast Host award for her Archetypes project, but she didn’t show up at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills to claim the award. Media claimed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex missed the prestigious award because they were afraid of street photographers and journalists.
Last week, May 16, paparazzi organized Car chase for Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and mother Doria Ragland. The event comes after the Women of Vision Awards, held at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in Manhattan, where the Duchess of Sussex was honored for her “global work and her lackluster contribution to protecting and advancing the rights of women and girls”.
A spokesperson for the royal couple commented, “This relentless pursuit, which lasted more than two hours, led to numerous accidents involving other drivers, pedestrians and two NYPD officers.”
