Harry and Meghan’s social life in Montecito is reportedly being affected by the ongoing media attention

Speaking to Newsweek, Jill Ishkanian, the photographer behind the farmers’ market photos, said Meghan Markle didn’t give her a lead, even though it could be read online. “Nobody calls me, trust me. I have absolutely no support, I do everything on my own. To be quite honest, it’s a real pain in the ass to get a picture of them,” she explained. And while Ishkanian’s photos of the Duchess were entirely harmless, paparazzi have been a problem for both Prince Harry and his wife, even after they decided to move to California.

According to NBC News, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said back in March they were involved in a paparazzi chase in New York. “This relentless pursuit, which lasted over two hours, resulted in multiple near misses with other drivers on the road, pedestrians and two NYPD officers,” a spokesman for Harry and Meghan claimed.

While Montecito may be a little more relaxed, it’s clear that Harry and Meghan always stand out when they go out in public. One could understand that her presence at an exclusive club with other A-listers could spark some irritation because of the unwanted attention of the ubiquitous camera lens, which could really limit the couple’s hangouts — if the rumor is true.
