The couple reportedly left the gala and took shelter at the Manhattan police station from the paparazzi.

Sky News reports that while the group switched to a yellow taxi, accompanied by a security guard, they were still followed by paparazzi.

While a spokesperson for the couple described the incident as ‘relentless’, lasting for more than two hours, the taxi driver told BBC News that he did not think the paparazzi were being ‘aggressive’.

"New York is the safest place to be, there's police stations, cops on every corner," he said.

New York Police Department, who was assisting the security team, confirms that there was a paparazzi pursuit but “there were no reported collisions, summonses, injuries, or arrests in regard”.

A high-speed chase in New York? Anyone who has been to New York knows that you might get five minutes going at some speed and that is it, you are stuck in a traffic jam like everyone else.
