Prince Harry Reportedly Cuts Ties With Princess Eugenie Over Her Night Out With Piers Morgan
Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, has reportedly ended his relationship with yet another royal family member and close friend, this time his cousin Princess Eugenie. The surprising fallout allegedly stems from Eugenie’s decision to hang out with Piers Morgan, a well-known critic of Harry’s wife, Meghan Markle.
According to a report first published by The Sun, the Duke of Sussex severed ties with Princess Eugenie after she was spotted socializing with the controversial TV personality and former Good Morning Britain host. Morgan himself has since confirmed the shocking claim, shedding light on the incident that sparked the rift.
When asked about the growing distance between Harry and Eugenie, Morgan didn’t hold back. “Well, that was because of me, actually—the Eugenie thing,” he said. “She was with me and a group of other people in a pub in London. I was seen hugging them goodbye, and Harry saw this and went completely ballistic. And I can confirm—breaking news—that this is entirely true.”
The event in question took place in 2023 when Princess Eugenie, 35, and her sister Princess Beatrice—daughters of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson—were photographed leaving The Princess Royal pub in Notting Hill. The pair had spent the afternoon enjoying a lengthy lunch with Morgan and singer James Blunt. Photos of the casual outing quickly made waves, but it seems Harry wasn’t pleased with his cousin’s choice of company.
Princess Eugenie has long been viewed as one of Prince Harry’s strongest allies within the royal family. Even after Harry and Meghan stepped back from their royal duties in 2020, Eugenie remained a loyal friend, making this alleged rift all the more surprising. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s exit from royal life had already strained many family ties, but Eugenie had managed to stay close—until now.
Morgan’s outspoken criticism of Meghan Markle over the years has made him a polarizing figure, especially in Harry’s eyes. Seeing his cousin cozy up to someone who has publicly slammed his wife may have been the final straw for the Duke. For now, this shocking claim adds another layer of drama to the ongoing saga of Harry’s relationships within the royal family.
