Prowler arrested outside Meghan Markle, Prince Harry's Montecito home

A citizens arrest was made at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's California home, Fox News Digital can confirm.

Kevin Garcia Valdovinos, 29, was caught lurking outside the Duke and Duchess' Montecito mansion early Monday morning by the royals' private security, according to the Santa Barbara Sheriff's office. At 2:11 a.m. security called police after carrying out a citizens arrest of Valdovinos, originally from Lake Elsinore, at the service entrance.

The suspect was arrested for a misdemeanor charge of stalking without incident and booked at the county jail. He was later released on $2,500 bail.

After further examination by detectives, the incident was classified as "a violation of 647(h) PC – Prowling (misdemeanor) and not a stalking violation." The investigation remains ongoing.

A representative for the couple did not immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment. It is unclear if Markle, Prince Harry, or their children Archie, 4, and Lilibet, 1, were there when the incident occurred.

This will be used to show Charles that he needs to pay for their security..which they have been arguing about for over a year..

One thing to be given security as a working Royal and quite another to expect security in the U.S. where they have decided to live.  Let them pay for their own security.  I hope Charles eyes are open, but I'm sure the distance between him and Harry must be heartbreaking.    Charles did stand his ground at the coronation and sat Harry three row back from the working Royals and those who are in the immediate line of succession to be the next King; William and George. Charlotte and Louis also come before Harry.   

Harry feels he is a spare, why would a spare need security?  Seriously??  Markle is a huge drama queen and a gold digger and she finally figured out she really isn't squat.

Princess Diana’s ex-bodyguard defends paparazzi in Harry and Meghan’s NYC car chase

By Snejana Farberov
May 18, 2023

Princess Diana’s former bodyguard came to the defense of the paparazzi involved in what Prince Harry and Meghan Markle claimed was an hours-long “near catastrophic” car chase — insisting that the shutterbugs are “at worst a nuisance” but “are not out to cause the death” of anyone.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex claimed they were subjected to a “relentless pursuit” by “highly aggressive” photographers as they were returning from the Women of Vision Awards, where Meghan was honored for her advocacy, at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in Midtown Manhattan on Tuesday night.

In an interview with ITV’s “Good Morning Britain” Thursday, Ken Wharfe, who was in charge of Princess Diana’s round-the-clock security between 1987 and 1993, downplayed the threat from the paparazzi.

“The paparazzi, at best, can be talked to, but at worst they’re a nuisance,” he said, citing his own experience.

“But they’re not out to cause the death of any one person. So, I think we have to be a little bit careful there.”

 Harry and Meghan demand photo agency give them footage of NYC ‘chase’
By Natalie O'Neill   
May 18, 2023 6:50pm

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle demanded that a photo agency hand over footage snapped by paparazzi during their high-profile “chase” in New York City — but the firm gave them the royal snub, lawyers said Thursday.

The embattled Duke and Duchess — who described their run-in with Big Apple photographers Tuesday as “near-catastrophic” — insisted they need the images to improve their own security, according to TMZ.

“We hereby demand that Backgrid [photo agency]  immediately provide us with copies of all photos, videos, and/or films taken last night by the freelance photographers after the couple left their event and over the next several hours,” a letter from their lawyers proclaimed Wednesday.

But attorneys for the celebrity photo agency refused, firing  back that the royals can’t play by the king’s rules here in the states.

“In America, as I’m sure you know, property belongs to the owner of it: Third parties cannot just demand it be given to them, as perhaps Kings can do,” Backgrid’s legal team responded.

“Perhaps you should sit down with your client and advise them that his English rules of royal prerogative to demand that the citizenry hand over their property to the Crown were rejected by this country long ago. We stand by our founding fathers,” it states.

 Sussex show is out of gas Sorry, Harry and Meghan — the car-chase lies don't fly in NYC

 Sorry, Harry and Meghan — the lies don’t fly in NYC
By Douglas Murray

Two unwelcome imports arrived in New York this week. You may have heard about Harry and Meghan’s big night in the city.

Accounts of their time here differ.

According to the couple themselves they suffered the ordeal of a two-hour, “near-catastrophic” car-chase with paparazzi tailing them all the way.

According to other sources (including the NYPD and the driver of the taxi the couple changed into to look humbler) the truth was rather different.

The fact is we didn´t need the authorities to tell us that. 

Every New Yorker knows that any kind of car-chase — let alone a two-hour one — is literally impossible in this city.

You can sit in traffic for two hours, sure. But actually racing through the city?

Sorry, but no. Every New Yorker can call that out as BS.

And now we have the footage to prove it.

Video of the exchange shows that the Sussexes were accompanied by the NYPD and that they moved at no speed at all.

 Why royal family won’t comment on Harry and Meghan’s ‘car chase’
By Brooke Steinberg   
May 18, 2023 3:10pm

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s car chase claims, according to a new report.

A source told Entertainment Tonight that neither Buckingham nor Kensington Palace will be commenting on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s allegations of a car chase.

“Since Harry and Meghan have stepped back from royal duties, the palace generally does not comment on their activities,” the source told the outlet.

The Post has reached out to Kensington Palace for comment.

A source told Page Six that no one from the royal family — neither King Charles III and Queen Camilla, nor Prince William and Kate Middleton — has checked in on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex after the incident.

Why one earth did they - the "Harkles" - think the royal family would rush to their defense after all their antics and rudeness?

🚨 New Sussex briefing to Victoria Ward. This. Is. Madness.

“The lack of personal contact, and Buckingham Palace’s refusal to publicly acknowledge or comment on the incident, is understood to have frustrated the couple, who friends suggested hoped to garner more support”

What.

“The couple’s team were so shaken that they stayed up all night, monitoring news sites to see which images were published and by whom.”

They are their own worst enemies.

Proves what I've always believed: Harry and Meghan genuinely think if they keep talking and oversharing, they'll convince others of their side. "Now I get it! You WERE right!"

But all they're really doing is shredding their reputations, burning bridges, and turning everyone off.

Harry & Meghan’s NYC ‘car chase’ happened because they were too cheap to pay for hotel: source

By Emily Smith
May 19, 2023

Harry and Meghan’s “near-catastrophic car chase” happened because they were too cheap to pay for a hotel, sources have revealed.

The entitled couple allegedly demanded the Carlyle — the late Princess Diana’s favorite hotel — give them a discounted room for their New York City visit this week.

According to law enforcement sources, bosses at the Carlyle refused the hefty discount, so the embattled pair instead stayed at a friend’s house on the Upper East Side.

But when the paparazzi began following them Tuesday night from the Ziegfeld Theater — in what their spokesperson claimed was a “relentless pursuit, lasting over two hours” — the duo didn’t want to lead the photographers back to their friend’s home and reveal where they were staying.

Their continued idea that they are entitled in the U.S. is almost laughable.  They have titles bestowed upon the from the UK, but those titles don't mean a whole lot here.

Photo Company Gives Harry And Meghan The Most American Response Ever To Their Demand For Pictures

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reportedly failed to obtain images from Tuesday’s “near catastrophic” paparazzi incident from photo agency Backgrid.

The legal team representing the Duke and Duchess of Sussex demanded that Backgrid “immediately provide us with copies of all photos, videos, and/or films” of the events in New York, according to TMZ.

Backgrid clearly felt the former royals were misinformed about the American way of handling such situations, and gave them a nudge in the right direction.

“In America, as I’m sure you know, property belongs to the owner of it: Third parties cannot just demand it be given to them, as perhaps Kings can do,” Backgrid wrote in a letter to Harry and Markle, per TMZ.

There is no legal basis for the demand-letter, yet it was reportedly sent in hopes Backgrid would willingly comply. The company didn’t hold back when responding to the demands set forth by Markle and Harry’s lawyers.

“Perhaps you should sit down with your client and advise them that his English rules of royal prerogative to demand that the citizenry hand over their property to the Crown were rejected by this country long ago,” they wrote.

“We stand by our founding fathers,” Backgrid wrote, in defiance of their demands exactly how the Founders would’ve wanted.
