But this didn’t keep Prince Charles from making his jokes about the claims.

Understandably, Harry was annoyed by the quips, and the rumors were allegedly also painful for Diana.

“I couldn’t make sense of it,” Harry said.

He insisted that his wife had played no role in the distance between him and his brother.

Harry, it seems, appears to agree.

The two dated between 2004 and 2010 after meeting in South Africa.

Prince Harry dated a handful of women before meeting his now-wife, actor Meghan Markle, in 2016.

However, he often proved his critics wrong, stepping in to serve when needed.

The queen gave him the title of “Commonwealth Youth Ambassador” just two years later.
