Gayle King Defends Harry & Meghan


Last week the Duke and Duchess of Sussex claimed they had been chased through the streets of New York for two hours by aggressive teams of paparazzi [click here if you missed that]. 

News correspondent Gayle King finds it troubling that the incident is being downplayed in the media...

Gayle King thinks it’s “troubling” that people are “downplaying” the two-hour paparazzi chase her pals Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were involved in earlier this week in New York City.
“I think it was a very unfortunate incident,” the CBS journalist exclusively told Page Six Saturday at the 148th Preakness Stakes in Baltimore, Md.
“It’s troubling to me that anybody would try to downplay what that would mean to them. That’s very troubling to me.”
Referring to the slew of media personalities and celebrities who have spoken out against the narrative that the two were “chased” in the streets of Manhattan, King said it’s unsettling that some are trying to “minimize how [Harry and Markle] felt in that moment.”
“I’m just really sorry it happened and very sorry they had to go through it,” said King, who was in Baltimore preparing to give a commencement speech at her alma mater, the University of Maryland, this week. “Everybody can have all of their opinions but I always go back to, ‘How did they feel in that moment?’”
