Life in the United States has presented new trials for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle following their departure from their royal duties. Navigating the turbulent waters of public scrutiny has reportedly created considerable strain on the couple.

RadarOnline.com has been privy to information suggesting the couple was greatly distressed by a recent harrowing car chase incident. This incident stirred painful memories of Prince Harry's late mother, Princess Diana, who tragically lost her life in a similar situation involving paparazzi in 1997.

This distress was exacerbated by ensuing allegations asserting that the couple amplified the gravity of the New York City incident to draw sympathy. A source disclosed to RadarOnline.com, "Harry filmed everything he could on his iPhone, and it's almost certain he will pursue legal action."

One insider, discussing the Duchess of Sussex's disposition, noted, "Meghan's doing her best to keep the faith and remain positive," amid her ongoing struggles since stepping back from the royal life in 2020. As the insider further revealed, Markle's recent trip to New York didn't go as planned, leaving her greatly dismayed.

Courtiers suggest that Markle feels a deep connection to Princess Diana, believing they both faced unjust treatment and were unfairly marginalized in the royal hierarchy.

The Duke and Duchess have chosen to voice their experiences in their memoir, Spare, and through a Netflix series, while the royal family has refrained from publicly commenting on the unfolding drama.

Despite the turbulence, Prince Harry recently attended his father King Charles' coronation on May 6, leaving Markle and their two children back in California.

One source remarked on the duress the couple is currently under, saying, "They're dealing with a lot of turmoil and criticism right now, and it's stressing Harry out." The insider continued to highlight Harry's anxiety about the mounting backlash, not just from the U.K., but from Americans as well, expressing his desire for things to go perfectly.
