In a surprising turn of events, Prince Harry has opened up about a heated disagreement he had with his close friend, Elton John, during the final night of their holiday at the Rocketman singer’s French home.

The incident, detailed in Harry’s new book, sheds light on a rift between the two, with no mention of any tribute to Elton, despite his frequent appearances in the book.

The cause of the clash seems to stem from a disagreement during their vacation and a refusal by Elton to perform a specific song.

It is worth noting that Harry and his wife, Meghan, have often expressed gratitude towards Elton for generously loaning them his private jet.

Elton had previously revealed that he covered the cost of a flight for the couple and their son Archie, ensuring their safety and offsetting carbon emissions.

However, following the snub in Harry’s book, it appears that Elton John will no longer be extending this favor to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Rumors suggest that there may be a serious falling out between Elton and the Harkles (Harry and Meghan), leading to speculation that Meghan won’t be attending any Oscars parties hosted by the singer.

Elton John’s connection to the royal family dates back to his close friendship with Princess Diana.

His emotional rendition of “Candle in the Wind” at her funeral left everyone in tears.

The singer also performed at Harry and Meghan’s wedding reception in 2018, and the couple sought solace with him in France after confessing their struggles.

During their stay, Harry and Meghan enjoyed quality time with Elton’s husband, David Furnish, and witnessed their son Archie capturing hearts with his resemblance to Princess Diana.

Harry recounts how Elton would often study Archie’s face, recognizing the strong similarities to his late mother.

However, tensions arose on the final night of their holiday, as the trio relaxed by the pool with Elton serving cocktails.

Harry attempted to congratulate Elton on completing his memoir, “Me,” but things took a turn when the singer revealed it would be serialized in the Daily Mail, a publication that has caused Harry much distress in the past.

The Duke couldn’t help but question Elton’s choice of newspaper, considering its role in making their lives miserable.

Elton’s response, that he wanted people to read it, only added fuel to the fire.

The atmosphere grew increasingly uncomfortable, with Harry admitting to beads of sweat forming on his forehead during the intense exchange.

Harry pressed on, reminding Elton of specific lies printed about him, only to discover that Elton had accepted a £100,000 payment from the same publication.

Despite the frustration, Harry chose not to pursue the matter further, as he cherished his friendship with Elton and didn’t want to spoil their holiday.

Elton John has remained a supportive figure in the lives of both Diana’s sons since her passing.

In 2019, he defended Harry and Meghan against false accusations and character assassinations.

This support came after criticism directed at the couple for their use of private jets, including one provided by Elton to his villa in Nice, despite their vocal stance on environmental issues.

At the time, Elton took to Twitter to express his distress over the distorted and malicious accounts in the press.
