Prince Harry finally speaks out on Prince Andrew physical fight rumour
Prince Andrew stepped back from public life after his disastrous Newsnight interview in 2019, which centred on his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The biography, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York by Andrew Lowni, and a Daily Mail article, allege that Prince Harry and Prince Andrew fell out at a family gathering after Andrew described Meghan as an 'opportunist' and said Harry's relationship with her would not last. In response, "punches were thrown" reportedly leaving Andrew with a bloody nose.
Now, a spokesperson for Prince Harry has stepped in to clear up – and firmly deny – this particular round of rumours.
According to PEOPLE, Harry's rep 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."
They added, "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."

How Meghan Markle celebrated her ‘beautiful' 44th birthday
Meghan Markle is 44! The Duchess of Sussex celebrated her special day on Monday with husband Prince Harry, their two children Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4, and her mom Doria Ragland.

Meghan Markle/Instagram 'To those of you I don't know, but who send love every day – thank you so much,' Markle added. 'Please know I feel it and appreciate it ❤️' Advertisement The duchess also gushed about the birthday dinner she enjoyed in Los Angeles with her closest loved ones. 'And just to get a little foodie on you….this dinner last night at @funke_la with the culinary mastery of @evanfunke and his team is in the top five meals of my life,' she said. 'Extraordinary 🍝 Thank you for a standout dining experience.' 6 Meghan Markle is celebrating her 44th birthday with her family. AP While the 'Suits' alum's birthday plans were initially under wraps, she ended up marking the occasion with a low-key soirée surrounded by her nearest and dearest — which no longer includes the Windsor clan. Advertisement Like in recent years, the royals – who have had virtually no communication with Markle since her and Harry's swift departure from royal life in 2020 – will not be sending a public birthday message. Indeed, the Firm was silent on the 'Suits' alum's 42nd and 43rd birthdays. 6 While the 'Suits' album's birthday plans remain under wraps, she will mark no doubt the occasion with a low-key soiree surrounded by her nearest and dearest.

'Wishing The Duchess of Sussex a very Happy Birthday today,' the royals wrote at the time. The Firm only issues birthday messages to senior working members of the monarchy, while non-working members only receive public messages on milestone birthdays. 6 The former actress resides in Montecito, Calif., with Harry and their two children. Meghan Markle/Instagram In the early hours of her 44th birthday on Monday, Markle shared a video of herself carrying a wicker basket filled with a floral arrangement and bottles of her newly released As Ever rosé line. 'Coming soon…' she teased on As Ever's Instagram page, alongside a video of her frolicking in the grass at her sprawling Montecito, Calif., estate. 'Goodness in a glass. Right around the corner…' she added, referring to her new 2024 Napa Valley Rosé. 'Cheers to August!'

One of Tom Cruise's Former Scientology Pals Claims Why His Romance With Ana de Armas Is ‘Doomed'
Ana de Armas and Tom Cruise are on Cloud 9, but one former colleague says this A-list romance isn't going to last. Karen de la Carriere, who was one of the highest-ranking Scientologists and a former colleague, told DailyMail she believes his new romance is doomed. More from SheKnows Tom Cruise & Ana de Armas Prove They're Done Hiding Their Relationship With Some Bold PDA 'Tom Cruise's love affairs are doomed. There is a honeymoon period with a lot of generosity and dazzling moments, and then reality sets in,' she said. 'Scientology is very bait and switch. It starts off OK, especially when you're the girlfriend of a superstar like Tom Cruise. But then you get to the higher, confidential levels and you find out things like you have 400,000 spirits attached to you and you have to spend the next 30 to 40 years peeling them off.' Cruise's exes Mimi Rogers, Nicole Kidman, and Katie Holmes have reportedly spoken about their disdain for the Church of Scientology, and Kidman and Holmes left the Church after their divorces. Plus, Armas has allegedly grown up in a devout Catholic family, so insiders are worried about if this will make or break their romance. In fact, earlier this year, insiders told the Daily Mail, there's one thing they can't quite outmaneuver: religion. 'Ana was raised Catholic and her family are religious,' a source said. 'She knows that her family would not accept Tom because of his beliefs. Ana and Tom have discussed this. His Scientologist beliefs are not a deal breaker for Ana. She is her own woman. And honestly, no one would be surprised if she took up Scientology' For those who don't know, Cruise was first spotted with de Armas on Valentine's Day 2025 by Daily Mail. Given the timing, fans were quick to assume that they had a romantic connection. By May, sources confirmed their relationship. 'It's low-key, still new and in the early stages,' a source told Us Weekly. 'Their romance is definitely on the down low.' As of July 29, they made their debut by holding hands on a date day out, per TMZ.
