- UK News. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have launched a secret investigation into why they are not wanted in Hollywood
- UK News. Meghan Markle's new podcast: A way to reach out to the community or a political stunt with Prince Harry?
Meghan Markle turned heads in New York City on April 10, when she rolled up to a Broadway show in a four-car motorcade that some are calling way over the top. The Duchess of Sussex, enjoying a rare night out while Prince Harry was in Ukraine visiting war victims, dined at the chic Polo Bar before heading to the Majestic Theatre to catch Gypsy, starring Audra McDonald. But it was her flashy arrival-complete with an unmarked NYPD car-that's got everyone talking, with one paparazzo calling it "absolutely abnormal" for a 1.5-mile trip.
She slipped into the theater with a security team that onlookers said felt "ramped up" compared to typical celeb outings.
"Even Taylor Swift usually travels with just two SUVs," a pap source spilled, noting the motorcade's size stood out in Manhattan's hustle. The extra muscle might stem from a 2023 paparazzi chase Meghan and Harry called "near catastrophic," though police downplayed it at the time.
Inside, Meghan was all smiles, gushing over Gypsy on Instagram the next day. "If you get a chance to see @gypsybway, you absolutely must," she posted, sharing snaps of her hugging McDonald, whom she met for the first time. "Her performance will leave you absolutely speechless. Full body chills."
Markle hits Broadway in style
The cast seemed just as thrilled, with the Gypsy production posting pics of Meghan chatting backstage with Joy Woods and Jordan Tyson. McDonald, a six-time Tony winner, has praised Meghan's "grace, strength, and purpose" before, making this a mutual iration moment.
The night wasn't just about theater vibes. Meghan's choice to go big with security comes as she's juggling a packed 2025-her Netflix show With Love, Meghan dropped in March, and her podcast Confessions of a Female Founder just launched. Meanwhile, Harry's been on the move, from London courtrooms to Ukraine clinics, ing wounded veterans. Posts on X lit up with chatter about the motorcade, some joking it was fit for a president, not a duchess popping out for dinner and a show.
Meghan's no stranger to the Big Apple-she filmed Suits nearby in Toronto and hosted her 2019 baby shower in NYC. This trip, though, had a different energy, blending low-key star power with a convoy that screamed high-profile.
