Elizabeth Hurley has firmly put to rest rumors surrounding her alleged affair with Prince Harry in a recent interview, clarifying that she has never even met the Duke of Sussex.
During an appearance on “What Happens Live With Andy Cohen,” the British model and actor addressed various speculations, with one of the most prominent being whether she was the ‘older woman’ mentioned in Prince Harry’s memoir, “Spare.”
In the memoir, Prince Harry recounted an episode without explicitly naming the woman involved, leading to widespread speculation that it could be Elizabeth Hurley. However, Hurley dismissed these rumors as ‘absurd’ and ‘ridiculous,’ emphasizing that she has never crossed paths with Prince Harry.
Describing the rumors as ludicrous, Hurley recalled the details mentioned by Prince Harry in his book, including that the woman was English, older than him, and the encounter took place in Gloucestershire. She humorously compared the assumptions to someone saying, “‘He’s great-looking. He’s American.’ Oh, it’s Andy Cohen.”
In Prince Harry’s memoir, he depicted the encounter with the woman, noting her fondness for horses and the unconventional location of their rendezvous—a grassy field behind a busy pub. However, Hurley’s denial firmly puts an end to any speculation linking her to the incident.
As for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the couple has transitioned away from their roles as working royals, seeking a more independent path in California. Their decision to step back from royal duties stemmed from concerns over their treatment by the royal family, as detailed in Prince Harry’s autobiography.
Living in an exclusive enclave outside Santa Barbara, the couple is focused on forging their own businesses and speaking out about their experiences. Prince Harry’s memoir, “Spare,” provided a platform for him to address years of family feuding and shed light on their struggles within the royal institution.
Despite the tabloid speculation and family tensions, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are charting their own course, determined to create a life that aligns with their values and aspirations. And with Elizabeth Hurley’s debunking of the affair rumors, one less sensational storyline remains in the gossip mill.
