Breaking: H & M in Car Chase

I’d think you must be mad. Why would you want to start filming an old granny?
Because I’m not even a quarter as pretty as Meghan.

Just read what actually happened instead of making stuff up and 2 and 2 most certainly make 4.

Not 76, which is what this thread does.

How would you feel if a bloke in casual clothes turned up outside your car in the streets of NY and started filming you?

I wonder if they had leant back , put on the seat belts and ignored the two cars and man on a bike, would this “hordes of paps “ got bored and gone away ?
A sober driver and seat belts would have changed the scenario, and why did their security team not spring into action ?

My theory is that they’ve exaggerated this situation because of Harry’s five, or is it six, well anyway his multiple court cases.
To be honest anyone with a brain can see see that the ends don’t join up. Just read/listen to the various eye witness/mayor of New York/ police statements and put them together and two and two make four.

But Prince William is one of the "good" royals, so he gets the sympathy

So there I am, a celebrity whose mother died in a car crash.

Taking a car home from an event with my wife and MIL Every time we stop at a traffic light or traffic jam, several people appear with video cameras to take our picture, unbidden. So we drive to a police station, get a taxi, but the same thing happens. We're scared to go to where we are meant to be staying in case the photographers follow us there through the slow moving traffic.

But its my brother, thousands of miles away, that you feel sorry for.

Glad the US is so safe

^It looks pretty scary^

They were stationary in that shot!

And Meghan was doing her Hollywood smile.

It's not for the first time is it Annie and unfortunately for William, I don't suppose it will be the last.

And that he'd wear a seat belt too Meryl.

I am so sorry for William hearing his mother’s death being used by his brother to gain publicity.

Knowing his mother died while not wearing a seatbelt, wouldn’t you think he’d make his nearest and dearest buckle up.

Have just been listening to New York report, on the "Duke & Duchess of Hazzard" claims, wondering if its been staged so " King Pa" will pay for his security. Its all very fishy, and to use his mother in the way he has is disgusting. Scenes from taxi show them and driver relaxed, and no seat belts. Will await official NY PD investigation .

Yes Annie the mayor did say that and the BBC's Royal correspondent Nicholas Witchell has referred very diplomatically to H & M's perception.

The voice on this video is British.

How horrible for Harry. I can't imagine how I'd feel, knowing my mum died that way, and the British media scum continuing to hound them like that.

So people who watch Royals are nasty.

I find it interesting that Harry just happened to have a video camera with him to film the 'chase', Is that the sort of thing you would bring with you to an awards ceremony? Maybe filming for Netflix.

It was his phone.
Nobody goes anywhere without theirs

You mean stay quiet so as not to upset the bullies?

Do you hear yourself?

maybe it will teach them to keep a low profile, to get out of the limelight for the sake of their children. Nah, they won`t do that

I'm now wondering if everyone thinks it was a chase like Bonny and Clyde with Benny Hill Music and machine guns hanging out of windows.

Ah me.

The Taxi driver said they were followed but there were no near crashes or high speeds, he reckons there is a Police Station almost on every corner in New York, so there was never going to be a problem. That what The Guardian said last night anyway.

namsnanny that’s the whole point you ve no idea only bits and pieces of journalism which we all know is pretty dire if you’re not the flavour of the month
We don’t know if it was as bad as it sounded, if it was nothing at all, if it was a publicity stunt, or if it was a terrified man having flashback s of his mum we just don’t know but some of the judgements on here are awful
Anyway that’s all I need to say I ll leave you all to it

Seems to me that nothing of note was reported about their trip home until their statement was released. It all looks remarkably odd.

That’s an iPhone. Don’t forget he has to start getting footage ( any footage) for the next Netflix series.
