@tapz It will be great if you can provide a repro using this Reproducer Template so it can be validated quickly

I can see if I could make some minimal test app. But something has changed as the events work in RN 0.78.

This issue is stale because it has been open for 180 days with no activity. It will be closed in 7 days unless you comment on it or remove the "Stale" label.
