Because she’s half Black, and she married a white prince who was known to be a very popular and in-demand bachelor.

They’re mad.

The Prince and his wife are entertainment, period.

Y’all are mad. You know it, we all know it.

Is Jimmy Kimmel mad? How about Chris Rock? The Sussexes are the gift that keeps on giving.

What is your point? They aren’t jealous basic white women. So, no, they aren’t mad. They’re comedians.

What is your point? We are not jealous basic white women either.

My point: Basic white women are jealous because half Black Meghan married popular white prince Harry.

Keep up.

I always thought she was Afro-Latina on Suits. I was so surprised when her Suits "dad" appeared. She looks seriously Dominican.

Sadly, your ignorance is showing. An Afro-Latina is just a black person who speaks Spanish. And Dominicans run the gamut from lily white to black. Try again.

And yet the majority of Dominicans are Afro -European... But I originally thought she looked a lot like Shoshanna (Jewish)...I was super surprised when her dad walked on in Suits, and revised my notions.

The police escorted them from the venue to their home, providing additional security to their own private security.

Hey, the police got the garbage truck to move by...honking.

There were no accidents or injuries during this 2 hour debacle, so “near catastrophic” is a bit of a stretch.

Also, why let it go on for 2 hours? Seems the driver should have pulled over. This wasn’t a mob trying to kill them. It’s horribly invasive, but surely avoiding being photographed after appearing at a much-publicized public event isn’t worth anyone’s life. So stop the car. Surely someone had a phone and could call police?

+1 Exactly my thoughts when reading. Don't want to compromise your friend's house, then stay at a hotel. Pull over. Anything is better than endangering people's lives.

Nice victim blaming.

Disagree. People hate them bc they are annoying twits. The question is why do YOU care so much? Maybe you wish that you were a halfu that snagged a prince.

She annoys me, and I'm not mad that she is half Black and married a white prince. Why is it so hard to believe that people dislike her for reasons other than her skin color?

Because there is no real reason. You don't know her. You don't know the inner workings of that family or how she was treated. You don't know what she was subjected to. You know nothing to have the opinion that you don't like her. Maybe you don't like her b/c she's biracial. Maybe you don't like her b/c she's a strong woman with her own opinions. She's not a doormat. And, frankly, that is common with women. So it is pretty likely.

I don't have to know everything about someone to not like them. People are free to not like people for any reason. I don't like you and I know nothing about you.

Police sources described to ABC News a different version of events from the one described by Harry and Meghan's spokesperson.

Two New York Police Department detectives were present at the Ziegfeld when Harry and Meghan emerged from the event and drove alongside the couple's private vehicle to get them home. Harry and Meghan were home no more than 20 minutes after their departure from the event, according to police sources.

Along the way, police sources said photographers on bicycles are visible on security cameras but not the kind of caravan described by sources close to Harry and Meghan.

The NYPD said in a statement: "On Wednesday evening, May 16, the NYPD assisted the private security team protecting the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. 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."

The NYPD is running down reports that members of the paparazzi had license plates covered on their motorcycles, scooters and cars, and that they were driving on sidewalks and backward on streets.

At one point, Harry and Meghan’s private security detail believed there was a car following them, so they drove toward the 19th Precinct, which is close to where the couple is staying, and pull into a driveway, according to sources.

Private security flagged a yellow cab and Harry, Meghan and a security guard climbed in. The cab circled the block and returned to the precinct, unable to shake the photographers, according to sources.

At no time did Harry and Meghan enter the police precinct, the sources said.

20 mins total, per the police! Wow.

This is your BS take on the article. The police did NOT say they were only involved for 20 minutes. You are either illiterate or bias, or both.

I think by "catastrophe" they mean Meghan M thought she might only be in the news for one evening for her award, instead of at least a whole day afterward.

They did. And while there, they Called a taxi to throw the paparazzi off their tail.

After 2 hours they pulled into a police station???

This is the NYPD statment:
"On [Tuesday] evening, May 16, the NYPD assisted the private security team protecting the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. 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."

Anyone saying the police said anything other than what is in this statement is a liar.

In 2 hours they could have been antiquing in the Hudson Valley!

I love this story. It has everything.

Let's be honest, she wasn't going to be in the news for that award anyway. She had to make something up to get noticed.

Meg "I know Harry, let's get the press whipped up about a car chase when we're in NYC"

Harry "yeah, coz I find car chasing paps really triggering Meg and the public will be sympathetic"

Too bad no one advised them that traffic in NYC is slow as molasses.

Agree. It just keeps getting better and better. Can't wait for the traffic cam videos to come out.
