As reported by PEOPLE, a spokesperson for the Duke of Sussex said, 'I can confirm neither of those things are true. Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have never had a physical fight, nor did Prince Andrew ever make those comments about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry.'
Legal action already underway
Along with denying the claims, Prince Harry has also taken legal steps against the Daily Mail, which published parts of the book. His team further confirmed, 'Such are the gross inaccuracies, damaging and defamatory remarks made in the Daily Mail's story, I can confirm a legal letter from Prince Harry's counsel has been sent to the Mail.'
Book claims punches were thrown
The book, written by author Andrew Lownie, describes a 'heated argument' in 2013 that reportedly turned physical. It alleges the row was sparked by 'something Andrew said behind Harry's back.' According to the book, things escalated until 'punches were thrown' and Andrew ended up with a bloody nose.
Meghan called 'opportunist', says book
In another major claim, the book says that Andrew later made harsh comments about Harry's then-girlfriend Meghan Markle.
He reportedly told Harry that Meghan was an 'opportunist' and said he didn't think their marriage would last.
Tensions with Prince William too
The book also claims that Prince Andrew has had long-running tensions with both Harry and his brother William. It says Prince William has worked behind the scenes to remove Andrew from Royal Lodge, the estate in Windsor that he still lives in. According to the author, William has 'privately expressed disdain' for both Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson.

As per the above mentioned report, Kensington Palace declined to comment, and Buckingham Palace did not respond to their request for a statement.
This is just the latest book to stir up trouble for the royal family. Since Prince Harry and Meghan stepped down from royal duties and moved to California in 2020, there have been several tell-all books and interviews revealing behind-the-scenes tensions.
Harry and Meghan's new life
Prince Harry, now 40, and Meghan, 43, are living in Montecito, California. They are raising their two children, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4, away from royal life. The couple now focus on philanthropic work and building their own projects.

Thayne Jasperson still performing in Hamilton after 10 years as only original cast member

Broadway's Hamilton turned 10, and Thayne Jasperson is the only original cast member still performing in the show. Thayne Jasperson, now 45 years old, says he was never the type to stay in one show for long — he was 'the year guy.' He worked in Newsies, Matilda, Finding Neverland, and the West Side Story tour, usually for about a year each. Everything changed when he joined early workshops for a new Off-Broadway show about Alexander Hamilton, which would later become the hit musical Hamilton. Jasperson plays Bishop Samuel Seabury, a loyalist character who performs the comedic song Farmer Refuted. He says he knew from the start that Hamilton would be something special and that he had to be a part of it, as per the report People.

He says, 'I just couldn't leave.' Jasperson joked that he told Lin-Manuel Miranda, 'You wrote too good of a show… I can't leave.'

Jasperson says some of his favorite memories happened in the theater — like singing on the stairs with Eliza actress Phillipa Soo for fun. He remembers a group of them — including himself, Okieriete Onaodowan (James Madison), and others — riding longboards and skateboarding through downtown during breaks, as per the report by People. Live Events Hamilton's success and what it taught him He says there were 'a million amazing memories' from the early days of Hamilton. But not all changes were easy. The first difficult moment for him came when Hamilton became a worldwide phenomenon. He loved the early days, when it was just one cast, no videos online, and no one outside knew the words. As more casts across the country joined and the show grew bigger, it felt different to him. Still, he says the growth is beautiful, because the story is relatable and powerful. Jasperson believes Hamilton remains strong even after 10 years because of its universal themes and emotional truth, as stated by People's report. He says the show makes people feel proud of how the U.S. separated from the UK and built its identity. The connection audiences feel to that story keeps them coming back to the theater. Jasperson also shares a personal story about moving to New York with a one-way ticket, putting his suitcase down in Times Square, and feeling deep inside that he had found his place. ALSO READ: No tariff trouble here! Shopify stock jumps 20% on blowout quarter and bullish outlook He says that moment told him, 'This is where you're meant to be.' He believes Hamilton taught him the value of self-belief and hope. 'Hope in yourself is important,' he says. When asked what's next, he says the future is open and he likes it that way — he wants to stay spontaneous, as per the reports. He jokes, 'You're gonna be wheeling me out in a wheelchair. I'm gonna be 82, and they'll be like, 'Get off the stage!'' Right now, he wants to keep doing what feels right and follow his mission in life, whatever it may be. He ends by saying, 'This is where I'm meant to be.' Tickets for Hamilton are still on sale at Broadway's Richard Rodgers Theatre, as mentioned in the report by People. FAQs Q1. Who is the only original Hamilton cast member still performing? Thayne Jasperson is the only original cast member still performing in Hamilton after 10 years. Q2. Why did Thayne Jasperson stay in Hamilton for so long? He stayed because of major events like the Tonys, Grammys, Disney+ filming, and his deep love for the show.

Prince Harry Cleared Of Bullying Allegation In African Charity Row

The UK's Charity Commission cleared Prince Harry of bullying allegations at Sentebale but criticized all parties for publicizing the dispute and noted governance issues. The United Kingdom's Charity Commission has cleared Prince Harry of bullying allegations made during a public row over his African charity, Sentebale. However, it criticised all parties involved for allowing the internal dispute to unfold in the public eye, damaging the charity's reputation, news agency AFP reported. The controversy erupted earlier this year when Sophie Chandauka, chair of Sentebale, accused Prince Harry of 'bullying" after a disagreement over governance. The dispute intensified in March and April, prompting the trustees to step down. Later, Prince Harry and co-founder Prince Seeiso of Lesotho also announced their resignation from the charity they established in 2006. Chandauka had previously criticised Harry for involving a Netflix crew at a polo fundraiser and for Meghan's unplanned appearance at the event. The Commission urged all parties to refocus on the charity's mission and those it serves.

Meghan Markle's Royal Tantrum: Calls Palace ‘Too Small', Sparks Megxit Storm

Before Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's dramatic royal exit, cracks were already forming, and it all started in a cottage. Meghan reportedly saw their modest Kensington home, Nottingham Cottage, as a royal snub, a sign that Harry was still being treated as the "spare." According to royal biographer Tom Quinn's bestselling book Yes Ma'am, Meghan believed the cramped space was an insult to her husband, especially compared to William and Kate's lavish residence. Her frustration allegedly spilled into staff relations, with early morning emails and what was later described as a "dossier of distress." Tensions exploded when Prince William confronted Harry over Meghan's behavior and what began in a tiny house soon triggered a royal earthquake.
