In his newly released memoir, titled “Spare,” Prince Harry opens up about his close friendship with the legendary musician, Elton John.
Known for his generosity towards those fortunate enough to know him, Elton John has always been a steadfast friend to the royal.
However, their relationship hit a rough patch in recent years, as Harry recounts a tense disagreement between the two.
According to reports, the real reason behind the falling out between Sir Elton John and Harry and Meghan is quite shocking.
It seems that Elton may have been secretly recording Meghan’s arguments with Harry.
Speculation arose when a netizen claimed that Elton, being the generous person he is, had lent the couple his private jet on multiple occasions.
However, rumors suggest that Elton, possibly influenced by his past drug use, had a habit of bugging his own jet.
The allegation goes further to claim that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex trashed Elton, suggesting that their friendship was merely for public relations and the perks of traveling in style.
In his memoir, Harry recalls how Elton had invited him and Meghan to stay with him in France back in 2019 when they were feeling overwhelmed.
During this time, Elton publicly defended the couple against criticism from the British press, expressing his distress over the distorted accounts surrounding their stay at his home.
Harry goes on to recount a disagreement that occurred on the last night of their visit.
It was revealed that Elton had planned to serialize his autobiography in the Daily Mail, a publication that Harry and Meghan had previously taken legal action against.
Feeling concerned, Harry voiced his objections, questioning why Elton chose a publication that had made his life so miserable.
Elton’s response was that he wanted people to read the book, and Harry decided not to push the matter further to avoid spoiling their holiday.
Elton John’s significance in Harry’s life goes beyond their recent disagreement.
The pop superstar was a close friend and confidant of Harry’s late mother, Princess Diana.
In his memoir, Harry fondly remembers Elton’s iconic performance of a reworked version of “Candle in the Wind” at Diana’s funeral in 1997.
He describes how Elton rose from his seat at the grand piano, bringing the audience to life with his heartfelt rendition.
The memory of that moment still brings tears to Harry’s eyes.
In another touching tribute, Harry reveals that he had asked Elton John to perform “Candle in the Wind” at the 10th anniversary memorial of Diana’s death.
However, Elton declined, fearing it would be too somber.
Instead, he chose to perform “Your Song,” celebrating Diana’s life and achievements.
Harry recalls Elton’s performance, noting the twinkle in his eyes and the smile on his face, radiating with cherished memories.
Prince Harry’s memoir offers an intimate glimpse into his friendship with Elton John, showcasing both the highs and lows they have experienced together.
Despite their differences, it is clear that the bond between them remains strong, rooted in shared memories and a deep appreciation for one another.
