1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: The city and with Kate Ritchie podcast. This is the 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: story I think that everyone will be talking about today. 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: I know it's been covered in the news, but Meghan 4 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: and Harry have been involved in what they're calling a 5 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:16,080 Speaker 1: high speed chase in New York City by paparazzi. They 6 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: attended the Women of Vision Awards in Manhattan. I'm sure 7 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,119 Speaker 1: you've seen the photographs roading around. She did, and she 8 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: spoke beautifully, apparently, considering you know that the night didn't 9 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: even start out well. They arrived, she stepped out of 10 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: a darkened suv onto the red carpet. She looked beautiful. 11 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: She had kind of a goal the gold dress, strapless 12 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: stress on, and Harry was there, fresh back from the coronation. 13 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: She had a denim jacket as well, with pearls sold 14 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 2: into the. 15 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: Not the pearls, the beads. Okay, with a few little diamonds. 16 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: I'm heading into middle age. I'm going to be wearing 17 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: that an animal print from now on. 18 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 3: It works. Her mother was there as well. It was 19 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 3: a very special night, wasn't it. 20 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: But it was, But it's started out being ruined by 21 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: them reaching the red carpet and a hecla at an 22 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,199 Speaker 1: event like this, saying something like, how do you feel, 23 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 1: Megan about being part of two broken families? This person 24 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: yelled at her, and I'm guessing she just continued to 25 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: smile and head into the into the event. I guess 26 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: they're obviously referring to her ruining the royal family and 27 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: coming from a broken family herself. The night ended and 28 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: they wanted to make a quick getaway. They were going 29 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: to stay at some friend's house apparently, and for security reasons, 30 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: they don't want the paparazzi to be following them to 31 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: a friend's house to find out, you know, all of 32 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: the addresses perhaps that they visit. So the plan was 33 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 1: for them to jump into a taxi, and that didn't 34 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: turn out well because the paparazzi jumped in their own 35 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: cars and started following them. Apparently the cab driver was 36 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: saying things about them chatting in the back, that it 37 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: was really high and emotionally, Megan was saying, oh my god, 38 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: oh my god, and I think really it just reminded 39 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: everybody of what happened to Harry's mother. Even the Mayor 40 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: of New York did speak about it. 41 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 4: The briefing I received two of our officers could have 42 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 4: been injured. 43 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: I don't think there's many. 44 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 4: Of us who don't recall how his mom died, And 45 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 4: it would be horrific to lose an innocent bystander doing 46 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 4: a chase like this and something to have happened to 47 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 4: them as well. Any type of high speed chase is inappropriate. 48 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: I would find it. 49 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 4: Hard to believe that there was a two hour high 50 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 4: speed chase. That would be I find out hard to believe. 51 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, so there's an element of doubt there about what 52 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: the details are. But because what they did do is 53 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: they realized the taxi driver was probably in danger as 54 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: well and probably wasn't as well equipped as their usual 55 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: security team, so they did circle back and get into 56 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: their own security vehicles, and of course the news is 57 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: track down the cab driver. This is what he had 58 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: to say about it. Those people they look nervous. 59 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 5: I mean, I think they were chea being chased the 60 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 5: whole day or something, so they were pretty nervous. And 61 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 5: next thing, you know, Prince Harry and his way for 62 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 5: harping into my cap. And as we went a block, 63 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 5: we got blocked by a garbage truck and all of 64 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 5: a sudden paparasi's scheme and started taking pictures. 65 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 2: They were just about. 66 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 5: To give me the location where they were gonna go, 67 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 5: but then they told me to circle back to the precinct. 68 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 3: So we circle back to the present. 69 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: I know, you said, FITZI. I mean the paparazzi or 70 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: the press. They already had, you know, a whole camera 71 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: full of images of them on the night they were 72 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: on the red carpet. There would have been photographs taken 73 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: within the event. They had scored pics of Meghan and 74 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: Harry and the mum Doria. She'd spoken. They had a 75 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: news story already. So what is the benefit of them 76 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: harassing to people and approaching a stopped car and taking 77 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: photos through a window and upsetting I mean it's. 78 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 6: Maybe it's the fact that there's a royal in a taxi. 79 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 6: I mean, you don't see that often. They could have 80 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 6: been extra money in that, absolutely. 81 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 2: I think the other reason was they didn't want to 82 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: give away the address of their friend's house, did they. 83 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: No, Because the other thing is too then they become 84 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: a target for paparazzi and then their privacy is infiltrated. 85 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 3: I guess do you see when you come out of 86 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 3: your house. Sometimes can you see them off in the distance, 87 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 3: can you see them in the bushes and stuff like that, hiding? 88 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,559 Speaker 1: Sometimes they're in the book, Sometimes they're in the bushes. 89 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: I remember being at the gym once and looking out 90 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 1: the window. This is when I went to a little 91 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: gym that was on street level, and I'm like, you know, 92 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: they're doing whatever it was I'm doing. Thank god, I 93 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: wasn't skipping rope exactly, And I look out the window 94 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: and I see a little guy hiding in the bushes. 95 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: But I think the majority of the time they don't 96 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: really care too much about hiding. They're just sitting in 97 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: a car at the end of the street. 98 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 6: Where was what's the most extensive you've seen them go to? 99 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 6: Like where they've made an effort to work out where 100 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 6: you are. Can't believe they've appeared there. 101 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: Well, I came out of the gym once and then 102 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: went to the news agency and then there was someone 103 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: kind of caught me by surprise, and it actually really 104 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: frightened me. And I think that's the point about this. 105 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: I don't think it's up. And please don't get me wrong, 106 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: I'm so far from Megan and Harry and I do 107 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: not have this level of intrusion. So don't get me 108 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: wrong when I'm talking about this, but it's not up 109 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: for other people to decide what is aggressive to you 110 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: and what is frightening to you and what instills fear 111 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: in you if you feel that that actually exists. So 112 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: and I have had times where I have felt uneasy, 113 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: or I've had may in the car and I know 114 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: that we're going to dancing or we're going to the park, 115 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: and it's not okay for you to follow a woman 116 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 1: in a car, or follow anyone in a car. Really, 117 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: but it's really unnerving and for it to continue, even 118 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 1: when at times I have approached these people and said, 119 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: you are frightening me. Please stop doing this. And I've 120 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: even been in tears about it. Please stop doing this. 121 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: Why you hear? How long have you been here? Please 122 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: just please stop? 123 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 3: What do you get? 124 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: Nothing? 125 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 3: Just doing my job? Man? 126 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: Just let us get it. Just please let us take 127 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: a photo. Maybe we can arrange to have a nice 128 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: photo taken. I even had someone say to me once, 129 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: can you stop wearing black jim gear because we can't 130 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: get a different job. Can you start wearing color? 131 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 6: I've heard about that of why celebrities wear the same 132 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 6: thing all the time because the photos don't vary, so 133 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 6: therefore they can't sell them. But I've heard also that 134 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 6: you get someone like a huge jackman and they'll follow 135 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 6: him around and then he'll say, all right, I'm going 136 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 6: to be down at Bondai Beach at eight o'clock in 137 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 6: the morning, I'm going for a swim. If you want 138 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 6: to take photos, then you can get your photos. 139 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 3: I don't mind. 140 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 6: You're getting your shots and then leave me alone for 141 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 6: the rest of the week. 142 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 2: But so you don't want to be this is the thing. 143 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 2: You don't want to be setting up dates with them 144 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 2: the whole time. 145 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: The freedom he wouldn't be getting paid for that, whereas 146 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: I think with other peope, well they do set it up. 147 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: But I guess once you've engaged in that kind of 148 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: behavior with them, you don't really have a leg to 149 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: stand on to then turn around and complain. The thing 150 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: is when you're being followed, and I would imagine this 151 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: is what has happened with Meghan and Harry too, and 152 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: probably why they got out of the taxi. It is 153 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: unfair for them to put the pressure on a you know, 154 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't mean a mere taxi driver, but a guy 155 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: with no experience of having to get away from someone, 156 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: it doesn't It doesn't matter how safe you want to be. 157 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: You are going to drive in a fashion that you 158 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't normally drive. And that's when you are in danger 159 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: or when other people, like the mayor said, some an 160 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: innocent bystander could be knocked down by the taxi driver 161 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: taking a quick left turn. And then what's the benefit 162 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: of that. 163 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 6: We were saying when we how do you and the 164 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 6: mayor was indicating, how do you have a high speed 165 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 6: chase through New York?
