Prince Harry denies giving Prince Andrew bloody nose at family gathering

Prince Harry has denied he gave Prince Andrew “a bloody nose” during a fight at a family gathering in 2013.

According to an excerpt from a new biography of the disgraced Duke of York, published in the Daily Mail on Saturday, the pair had a heated argument that escalated into a physical altercation. “Punches were thrown over something Andrew said behind Harry’s back”, the author Andrew Lownie claimed.

The alleged fight began when “Harry told [his uncle] he was a coward not to say it to his face. Harry got the better of Andrew by all accounts, leaving him with a bloody nose before the fight was broken up.”

Lownie’s biography, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, also claims Andrew told his nephew that his marriage to Meghan Markle, now the Duchess of Sussex, would “not last more than a month”.

He allegedly “accused Meghan of being an opportunist and thought she was too old for Harry, adding that his nephew was making the biggest mistake ever,” and told his nephew he had gone “bonkers”, accusing him of not doing “any due diligence into her past” before they got engaged in 2017.

He does own up to viciously headbutting his aunt Sophie Edinburgh at the Ascot races, however.

Prince Andrew was seen sporting a black eye shortly before Meghan and Harry announced their engagement.

Well, Andrew wasn't wrong in his advice to Harry.

I guess Harry didn't include this nugget in 'Spare', since he couldn't turn it in to himself being the victim.

Hilarious to see the Guardian use the balding Harry picture!

Pervert Andrew giving relationship advice to anybody is hilarious. Harry should have knocked him out.

It’s good to highlight Harry’s irrational behavior and violent temper.

I've always been curious why Harry and Meghan seem to go out of their way not to criticize Andrew. They threw basically everyone else under the bus, but not the pedo uncle. Of course, there's that rumour that Meghan actually met Andrew through Soho house connections and they fucked before she actually met Harry but I don't believe it. People on SM have pointed out that Andrew made an appearance at a family funeral in 2017 with a black eye which was around the time Harry was advising his family of his desire to marry her. And I mean if anyone knows anything about opportunistic women, it would be Andrew.

All that aside, Harry is an idiot for threatening to sue. All he's doing is giving this book free publicity. A book that was probably going to go under the radar after a few excerpts were published. Since Harry issued a statement, it's moved up to number 1 in royal biographies on Amazon. I know this "he punched Andrew" likely puts a question around who actually started the allegedly fight with William where the dog bowl and his necklace broke.

The alleged 2013 incident had nothing to do with Meghan since they hadn't even met then. Probably just a couple of prickly assholes being themselves.

The gossip I do find interesting is that William can't stand Sarah Ferguson.

[QUOTE]The book claims Harry and his brother, William, had “problematic” relationships with Andrew for years and that Andrew was also rude about William’s wife, Catherine, the Princess of Wales.

[QUOTE]The source quoted in Lownie’s biography claims the Prince of Wales is keen to “evict” the duke and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, who lives with Andrew though the couple divorced in 1996.

[QUOTE]According to Entitled’s source, “[William] also loathes Sarah … and can’t wait for the day when his father throws them both out. If Charles doesn’t, I guarantee you the first thing William does when he becomes king is to get them evicted.”

It’s never irrational to knock out pervs who prey on underage girls. Strange you don’t think so, R6.

by Anonymousreply 10August 3, 2025 11:07 PM

R8 The author of the book clarified on X that the Daily Mail excerpt was fucked it up. There were allegedly two physical altercations between Andrew and Harry. One took place in 2013 (over what, I don't know) and 2017 over Meghan. The Megz one seems to line up with the photos of Andrew having a black eye.

All of it doesn't speak well for Harry's psychiatric care team.

[post redacted because independent.co.uk thinks that links to their ridiculous rag are a bad thing. Somebody might want to tell them how the internet works. Or not. We don't really care. They do suck though. Our advice is that you should not click on the link and whatever you do, don't read their truly terrible articles.]

That would finally be something cool if he had done that

R7 isn't it the case that the proprietor of SoHo house is Andrew's bastard child and possible ex of Meghan, hence the muted response from The Sussexes?

We both reached for the gun.

I hated Sophie since she styled herself like a pound shop Diana in the 90s.

There have been lots of rumors that Harry has a huge problem with violence. He was said to have brutally roughed up prostitutes near his military base when he was in the army and that it had to be hushed up.

by Anonymousreply 18August 4, 2025 4:10 PM

We get told that Beatrice and Eugenie are devoted to their parents and also Harry and Meghan 's only friends in the royal family. This doesn't seem to fit with the Harry and Andrew have repeated fist fights story

by Anonymousreply 19August 4, 2025 4:25 PM

The book in question is all about Andrew. Here's an excerpt. Have only skimmed, but the gossip looks promising.

[QUOTE]A former aide had been reduced to tears after being ‘bawled at’ in a phone call before dawn because Andrew was unhappy with a story in the Sun newspaper. A member of staff was moved to other duties because Andrew ‘disliked a mole on the man’s face’, another ‘because the man was wearing a nylon tie’.

[QUOTE]Some say a report on bullying accusations against Meghan Markle has never been released because it would also raise questions about the behaviour of the Queen’s second son

The smoked weenie wraps were burning on the grill at the trailer park that night, and they'd run out of beer.

Harry is tired of being Wills’ whipping boy, and is finally speaking up!

Is Andrew a DLer? He shows promise.

by Anonymousreply 23August 6, 2025 7:58 AM

I just read the article. Andrew has to go. It's not enough to hide him and let him be considered a part of that family.

He's worse than the Harkles.
