Prince Harry’s memoir has caused quite a stir, with former friends now coming forward to dispute some of his claims.
One particular claim that has caught attention is Harry’s assertion that it was Prince William and Kate Middleton who encouraged him to wear a Nazi uniform to a fancy dress party back in 2005.
A former royal aide, who was involved in handling the fallout at the time, has spoken out, stating that Harry never mentioned William and Kate’s involvement in the incident.
According to the aide, there was no recollection of such an event or any mention of the couple finding it amusing.
Another friend who attended the same party has also dismissed Harry’s claims, calling them “bullshit.”
They insist that the incident had nothing to do with William and Kate.
Furthermore, Harry’s memoir suggests that he was not the best man at William and Catherine’s wedding, despite media reports at the time stating otherwise.
He claims that two of William’s friends took on the role instead and that he did not give the best man’s speech.
However, this contradicts multiple stories from that time, which reported that Harry did deliver the speech.
Harry’s recollections of his brother’s wedding continue to raise eyebrows.
He now alleges that being the best man was all for show and that he did not provide the best man’s speech.
However, various sources have pointed out that this is simply not true, as numerous reports from the time confirm that Harry did indeed give the speech.
In fact, an article by the Mirror even highlights the comedic relief provided by two of William’s friends during the event.
There was even a story involving Harry’s then-girlfriend, Chelsea Davey, advising him to edit the speech due to a comment about Catherine’s legs.
In his memoir, Harry also reveals that he chose a close friend, Charlie Van Straubenzee, as his best man for his own wedding to Meghan Markle in May 2018.
He suggests that his older brother failed to attend a get-together organized with friends, possibly due to sulking.
However, it is important to note that Harry’s claims have been met with skepticism, as they seem to contradict known facts.
One such contradiction arises from Harry’s account of an alleged physical altercation between him and William in the kitchen of Nottingham Cottage in 2019.
Harry claims that during the incident, he fell on one of the dog’s ceramic bowls, causing it to crack.
However, it has been pointed out that Harry and Meghan were not living at Nottingham Cottage at that time; they were residing at Frogmore Cottage.
Additionally, photographs taken before the alleged fight show that the dog bowls were made of metal, not ceramic.
As more details emerge from Harry’s memoir, it becomes evident that there are inconsistencies and contradictions in his recollections.
Former friends and acquaintances are now speaking out to set the record straight.
While Harry’s memoir provides a personal perspective, it is important to consider multiple accounts and existing evidence when evaluating the accuracy of his claims.
