Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reportedly skipped the Gracie Awards on Tuesday night, days after the couple was allegedly chased by paparazzi photographers in New York.
Hours before the ceremony where the Duchess of Sussex was to be honored, representatives for Meghan refused to comment whether she would receive the award personally.
Kinsey Schofield, host of the "To Di For" podcast, told Fox News Digital the Duchess of Sussex won't show up due to being "shaken up" from the alleged car chase.
The Gracie Awards Gala was held at the Beverly Wilshire (A Four Seasons Hotel) in Beverly Hills, CA.
Meghan Markle was listed on page 5 of the list of National Winners for the awards.
Meghan Markle was introduced as The Duchess of Sussex (Archetypes) Spotify, Gimlet, and Archewell Audio Podcast Host.
