The photo agency accused of tailing Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, during what the couple called a "near catastrophic" car chase in New York has rejected the royals' requests for copies of their photos.
Freelance photographers working for the agency Backgrid USA Inc. had followed Harry and Meghan's security escort on Tuesday by car and bike, snapping photos and recording video as the royals left an awards ceremony by taxi.
A spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex claimed the photographers' alleged pursuit had resulted in multiple near-collisions involving other vehicles, pedestrians and two New York Police Department officers, as well as multiple traffic violations, such as driving on the sidewalk, running red lights and reversing down a one-way street.
