The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were left shaken up after being followed by paparazzi through New York City in a “frightening” and “reckless” pursuit, the security chief responsible for their transport has said.

In an interview with US broadcaster NBC News, Tom Buda, president of Buda Security, conceded that the pursuit was not high speed, but did put the couple in danger.
