A British publication ignited a new bomb within the royal family. According to journalist Andrew Lownie, Prince Harry allegedly struck his uncle Andrew in the face during an argument in 2013, in the midst of a family gathering.
The account, published in the book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York and previewed by the Daily Mail, detailed that the fight broke out when Harry discovered comments Andrew had allegedly made behind his back.
The argument escalated so quickly that, according to Lownie, Harry ended up delivering a direct blow to the face of the brother of King Charles III, leaving him with a bloody nose. The episode reportedly marked the beginning of their estrangement.
It was also claimed that Andrew never approved of his nephew's relationship with Meghan Markle. He allegedly called her an "opportunist" and predicted that their marriage wouldn't last even a month.
Harry's inner circle denied everything and threatened legal action
Prince Harry's response was swift. Through his official spokesperson, he categorically denied the account in the book. "None of this is true. There was never a fight, nor any offensive comments toward the Duchess of Sussex," he told People magazine.
