Meghan Markle, Princ Harry to make first visit to NYC since car chase

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are making the journey across America to the Big Apple once again.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be making the trek to New York City for the first time since they were in a “near catastrophic car chase” this past May.

The couple will be heading to Manhattan for World Mental Health Day on Oct. 10 for their Archewell Foundation’s first-ever in-person event, People reported today.

The organization is set to host “The Archewell Foundation Parents’ Summit: Mental Wellness in a Digital Age” — a platform for families who want to build a “safer online world for children and teens,” according to the publication.

The event will showcase parents “who have experienced tragic loss connected to their child’s social media use.”

The “Suits” star, 42, and the Invictus Games founder, 39, will participate in a conversation hosted by Carson Daly.

Harry and Markle appeared at the ceremony alongside her mother, Doria Ragland. Following the bash, the three were allegedly chased by paparazzi in the city after leaving the awards show in an SUV.

Moments later, they jumped into a yellow taxi in hopes of evading the photographers and paparazzi that were trying to catch up with them.

They went on: “This relentless pursuit, lasting over two hours, resulted in multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians and two NYPD officers. While being a public figure comes with a level of interest from the public, it should never come at the cost of anyone’s safety.”

Markle and Harry have been open about their own mental health in recent years.

Last October, the former actress revealed on her “Archetypes” podcast how Harry helped her find a therapist when she was at a low point.

In Harry’s 2021 Apple TV documentary “The Me You Cannot See,” he dove into his own struggles, saying that mental health counseling has transformed his life.
